What is recorded here

Y Gaer Fach, Hill Fort is a castle, fort or tower in Sir Gaerfyrddin / Carmarthenshire, Wales. Perhaps stones and timber rose here before written memory, shaping a small defence against storms or rivals. Maybe people climbed the hill at dawn, watching shadow leave the valley while the fort stood silent above them. Imagine a hand on rough stone, feeling heat leave the surface after sunset.
