SPETISBURY
SUNDAY 15TH JULY - WORK PARTY
I am going up to the station on Sunday, and hope that a few of you can join me. One thing on the agenda is replace the edging slabs that have been lifted. So I will need help! Anyone interested, please let me know as soon as possible.

It might be worth as a temporary fix to cast some in concrete using a dye to get a near colour match. Also you may find that they are dumped in some bushes on the site, not to far from where they came from, I suspect they were moved for safety reasons after the vandals first dislodged them.
Keep up the good work on the site if the photos are anything to go by, you are coming on leaps and bounds.
one final suggestion I have seen on your groups face book page, that some items you have found have disappeared, this will only get worse when more finds are made this issue dogs every archaeological dig ever made throughout history, I do realise you are not a dig as such, but any items of interest your team find may end up in a history of the station display so from that perspective. the solution is to appoint a person or small group to look after them ideally as near to the station as possible so your helpers can drop off items easily, bearing in mind that original S&D Jnt R stuff will have some value and there for be liable to theft if left on site. this is by no means a criticism, but an idea as you are doing such a good job reviving this long lamented old line.
