What is recorded here
Aberystwyth Clock Tower is a castle, fort or tower in Ceredigion, Wales. Perhaps its clock marked the pulse of a busy port while men watched ships leave. Maybe the tower stood guard over roads and rivers long before cameras existed. Imagine a keeper winding gears in darkness, listening for rain on stone.
