The Castle

[brownknees]

I have been visiting the castle since I was about 10 years old and in fact three of us used to help the caretaker mow the grass on the motorised mower(no elf and safety in the 1940s!!).On my last visit I asked the English Heritage lady why they could not put a roof on the keep and glass in the windows and have some lighting put in,perhaps it could be used for wedding ceremonys as well as its such a beautiful setting with much Northumbrian history attached to it.Reply was no,it would be too expensive and there are too many Health and safety issues!!!End of thay conversation!!What do forumites think?Good idea or not?
