The Castle - Fundraising - Walk of words block examples

The Walk of Words comprises over 250 engraved Purbeck limestone blocks on the wall between the two keeps in the garden of the Castle

It was designed as part of the fundraising for the Durlston Project.

The wall is now complete, so we are open new ideas....
