The church tower at St Mary's church, Mold, in silhouette

The church tower at St Mary's church, Mold, in silhouette is a castle, fort or tower in Flintshire, Wales. Perhaps the tower is the last visible part of the church when the valley drowns in fog. Maybe it stands like a tower in a castle because distance removes every ordinary detail. Imagine the town reduced to a black shape against a pale sky, still pointing upward.
