Local primary school children from Hardy Memorial are concerned about the state of the village's most important listed building and begin to think of ways of saving it. A primary 6 class put in place Operation Restoration to investigate the historical aspect of the castle, conduct an opinion poll of local people, survey the external structure and estimate the cost to bring it back to its former glory. |
