What is recorded here
Control Tower, Barra is a castle, fort or tower in Na h-Eileanan Siar, Scotland. Perhaps it watched the sea for ships or storms, standing above the island edge while people lived and left below. Maybe the tower still holds the shape of that duty, with stone worn by wind and memory.
