Collapsing Castle

 I was very sad to hear that one of the towers at Clifford Castle has collapsed, due to the heavy rain we've been having.

The owner of the castle had been opening it to the public for twenty eight days a year (I went up there with a group a few years ago, and had a good look round).  But now he says he's closing the site, because he can't take the risk of anyone getting hurt.  He's working with Historic England now to see how the site can be stabilised and made safe.
