After reading about Diamond Geezer’s endangered bollards, I wondered whether there were any threatened sites near me. Turns out the field I live in is pretty dull but there is one on the list right next to where I work!
Despite working in Hursley for over 10 years I’ve never been to Merdon Castle, mostly because it isn’t open to the public. Still, might have to investigate one lunch time.
Notes from a small field 
You’d think that helping out with the clearance work on the castle would make a grand team building exercise for us Hursley folk?
Well I was thinking of something more relaxing like a lunch time tour! Good idea though- I’m sure there’d be a few people in Hursley willing to help out. I wonder if the culture connection team would be interested in investigating.
