Petition update

There are 1307 signatures on our petition.  Some are local people, some are distant friends and visitors.  One of the latest is Dr Paul Shore who came to speak at the Visitor Centre in April - his subject was early music.  This was an interesting lecture prompting thoughts about the evolution of music and how this was shaped by the environment and buildings. The importance of silence also featured.

Andy Raine of the Northumbria Community spoke of the ever growing interest in key sites and the  valuable contribution of the Whtihorn Trust. 

Archaeologists, historians and academics have all commented alongside people involved in the tourism industry.

We say a very big THANKYOU to each and every one.
