Restoration work at Corfe Castle
At the moment parts of the castle are undergoing conservation work to preserve the remains and ensure that it doesn't have to be shut to the paying public. There is plenty of signage around the site telling you what's gone wrong - here they are replacing the mortar. Frost damage was shattering the mortar and stone and chunks were falling off.
