What is recorded here

Dry stone wall composed of slate at Dolbadarn Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Gwynedd, Wales. Perhaps the stones fit without mortar because rain and wind tightened their joints before humans learned to build. Maybe the wall still holds the shape of hands that stacked it, pressing slate until it became a ridge. Imagine a man walking the top at dusk, feeling the mountain breathe through the gaps.
