Not sure if is the right forum but a friend of mine asked me to pass this along, feel free to move this if it's inappropriate.
------
Early on Saturday January 23rd 2006 someone broke into the warden's hut at the Rollright Stones and started a fire. This gutted the entire hut and damaged the roof beyond repair. Unfortunately the hut was not insured.
It has been estimated that it will cost approximately £6,500 for a replacement hut, as the Trust wish to replace the wooden hut with a steel one, but then clad it with wood so that it would be both more secure and still fit in with the surroundings. The Rollright Trust do not have the money to fund this, as they are a hand to mouth organization.
Pictures of the damage done (and other pictures of the stones) can be seen here.

So my friends have set up the Rollright Project, they've recorded a limited edition CD (with an extra track by Nonimus and Golden Apple) and are doing a number of charity gigs with all proceeds being given to the Trust.
The first charity gig is
7pm - September 16th 2006
Red Lion Inn
Little Compton
Entry £3
Oh yes and they describe themselves as 'A little bit folksy, a little bit bluesy and some other stuff as well'.
Flyer here if you want to pass it about.
Thanks |
