What is recorded here
Over the fields to Dynevor Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Sir Gaerfyrddin / Carmarthenshire, Wales. Perhaps the fields belong to no one now, but the castle still watches the horizon like a stone dog waiting for its master. Maybe the wind carries voices from the towers, calling names that have forgotten how to speak. Imagine walking the fields at dusk, hearing footsteps behind you that leave no marks in the grass.
