What is recorded here

Clock tower, Knighton is a castle, fort or tower in Powys, Wales. Perhaps it stood as a quiet watchtower above the town, marking hours for people who no longer remember its name. Maybe the clock still rings at midnight, calling back shadows that left centuries ago. Imagine a hand winding the gears in darkness, keeping time for someone invisible.

Built in the 14th century, the Clock Tower at Knighton was part of the defences of the castle constructed by the de Clavering family, later held by the powerful Mortimer earls. It is important as a rare surviving example of medieval military architecture in the Welsh Marches.
