What is recorded here
Telecoms Tower at Lype Common is a castle, fort or tower in Somerset, England. Perhaps it watched the common not for kings but for signals, translating human distance into visible fire. Maybe the tower still belongs to that old purpose, waiting for a hand reluctant to leave the world behind.
