What is recorded here

War shelter, Pendennis Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Cornwall, England. Perhaps people ran inside when alarms sounded, pressing bodies against stone while fire fell outside. Maybe the chamber smelled of sweat, dust and fear during the worst minutes of the war. Imagine children learning that safety could be as small as a room, and as strong as the wall around it.
