What is recorded here
Wallace Tower, Tillydrone is a castle, fort or tower in Aberdeen City, Scotland. Perhaps stones still hold the shape of hands that built them. Maybe the tower watched carts, storms and quiet streets change. Imagine a room where one lamp burned through rain and memory.

Built by the Keith family in the 16th century, Wallace Tower is associated with the Scottish knight Sir William Wallace and is remembered for its historical connection to the Wars of Scottish Independence.
