What is recorded here
The Castle Gift Shop, Slate Quay is a castle, fort or tower in Gwynedd, Wales. Perhaps the gift shop occupies a chamber where knights once stored arrows, selling postcards instead of weapons. Maybe the quay stones still hold the shape of rowing boots worn smooth by centuries of tide work. Imagine a woman pressing her palm to the wall at dusk, feeling the vibration of a hundred boats leaving and returning.
