Not sure about this... *wonders why Newstead Abby needs restoring* - spent a lot of my childhood there and I really like the fact that it's half derelict and half entact. Am watching the program though, shall judge properly after I've seen their argument. lol. griff is just telling us about ruins... Radar station was ok and yes it's important, but I like OLD stuff. I hope Cardigan Castle wins the runner up, it needs restoring. I LOVE ruins. :-[I love going round old houses... :-[Where is this Whitley Court? shooting shagging and fencing! ;D It's the abbey... It gets my vote over a radar station;) Who's the mad old biddy? Oh NO, annoying american woman!

The abbey over the radar station for me...
The radar station's being greedy, it should be restored but it doesn't really need another 500K to turn it into a museum! Plus, why on earth did they bring down the old mast only 3(?) years ago?!!!!!!
It would be a huge shame if the wing of the abbey was left to ruin as it truly is beautiful... the piece on Whitley Court can only have helped Newstead Abbey's bid, surely. It did need explaining why a ruin would cost so much.
Am shocked at how much money goes to the government too!!! Surely certain buildings should be exempt?
