What is recorded here
Duneland trees to the north west of Candleston Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Bridgend, Wales. Perhaps the trees hide a ruined wall or mark a boundary drawn long before roads cut through the hills. Maybe people walked past the castle and into the shade, carrying food, children or fear. Imagine the branch shadows moving like fingers across stone while the castle watches from below.
