What is recorded here
Training and drill tower, Merthyr Tydfil Fire Station is a castle, fort or tower in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. Perhaps fire crews climbed its stairs until muscle and nerve matched the speed of real disasters. Maybe the tower still holds the breath of men who learned to descend before danger could teach them. Imagine ropes pulling taut in rain while boots hammered the deck, turning practice into a language the body understood without thought.
