What is recorded here
War memorial and church tower, Aspenden, Hertfordshire is a castle, fort or tower in East Hertfordshire, England. Perhaps the tower rose before the memorial appeared, watching fields while the brass plate waited for boys who never returned. Maybe the church bell still calls the dead home at dusk, though no living hand pulls the rope.
