Efforts to stabilise Dunedin's second castle get underway

It's hoped a million-dollars worth of stabilistation work will start shortly on Dunedin's second-oldest castle. Construction on Cargill's Castle began in 1875, a few years after the city's perhaps better-known castle, Larnach, was completed. It was gutted by fire in 1892, rebuilt, had a couple of decades as a restaurant and cabaret in the 30s and 40s and eventually fell into a state of disrepair. The Trust managing it is hopeful, with the planned stabilisation and strengthening work, it'll allow visitors to return to the site - to be enjoyed as a ruin.
