What is recorded here
St. Mary's church tower at Arlingham is a castle, fort or tower in Stroud, England. Perhaps it guarded a narrow valley road before becoming a church spire, forcing worship and watchfulness to share one stone body. Maybe soldiers stood where priests later prayed, carrying the danger into every blessing spoken beneath them.
