What is recorded here
St Andrews Church Tower, Great Billing is a castle, fort or tower in West Northamptonshire, England. Perhaps it stood as a watchtower above the village, watching for danger or marking the boundary of a lord's land. Maybe its stones held prayers as much as warnings, blending faith and force in one vertical line. Imagine a keeper climbing at dawn, not to fight but to call the village awake.
