Round tower, St Peter's Church

Round tower, St Peter's Church is a castle, fort or tower in Cheltenham, England. Perhaps it stood as a watchtower for the church, guarding the grounds from marauders or marking the boundary of sacred land. Maybe its round shape resisted siege weapons better than square walls, a practical choice born of local conflict. Imagine climbers testing its stones centuries later, reading bruises and tool marks that never entered any record.
