Looks like it’s coming along a treat, must visit one day soon. The video on the ‘About us’ page on the GWS website nearly brought a tear to the eye. Very well done.

Many thanks for that. I had hoped to get there when it opened to visitors but was unable to so I will really make the effort next year – it is a fascinating project.
