What is recorded here

The Tower and Capel Beuno Shrine at Eglwys Beuno Sant Church, Clynnog is a castle, fort or tower in Gwynedd, Wales. Perhaps stone hands still catch rain there, dragging breath into chambers no longer drawn on any map. Maybe the tower was built to keep out what the shrine was built to hold. Imagine a man climbing through dark water, not to escape it but to teach it the shape of being seen.
