What is recorded here
Greaves Tower - World's End Estate, SW10 is a castle, fort or tower in Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, England. Perhaps it rose above ordinary roofs, forcing residents to look upward before looking outward. Maybe the tower marked a boundary where familiar streets stopped and uncertainty began. Imagine a person climbing its stairs not to escape, but to watch the city admit its own edge.
