For the past few months, we have been working with English Heritage and
Ordnance Survey who have been making an absolutely key contribution to the
on-going project. The primary focus thus far has been on reconciling various forms of evidence of the original outline of the monument, with a view to being able to ‘cut the
first sod’.
The restoration of the outline will commence on the weekend of Saturday 9th
/ Sunday 10th July. Under the supervision of Dorset County Council’s Ranger
Service.
Instructors from PGL Adventure Centre, Osmington, will be the first of several volunteer groups to work on the hill cutting out the restored outline. They will be followed by sixth formers from Thomas Hardye School, Dorchester, on Friday 15th July, the Dorset Army Cadet Force on Saturday 16th July and Weymouth Scouts on Sunday 17th July.
