Hi, it has been a long time since we have updated everyone on what has been happening and I apologise for that, but although nothing appears to have happened, the Trust has continued to work with NRW & Cadw on how to move forward.![]()

Due to the Welsh Government cut backs in funding, neither NRW or Cadw have the finances to be able to fund the repairs, we are therefore looking at what possibility’s there are for funding from outside sources such as the Heritage Lottery fund, but wherever we apply to, we will need to fund so much ourselves and will be looking at options for fundraising.![]()
None of this will be possible without the support of yourselves, so when we have more information it is our intention to hold a public meeting to inform everyone on how we propose to move forward and hopefully try and gather more support to make it all possible.![]()

Chair SRP
A statement has been released today by NRW, following the erection of the scaffolding, a more in depth inspection has been carried out which has shown the Pillar to be in a far worse condition than first thought, the Pillar is in danger of collapse and will therefore need to be dismantled and then rebuilt, please see the statement for the full information.
One of the SRP Trustee’s, David Roberts has been up to the Pillar this morning and can confirm there are signs of work starting, with a portacabin and scaffolding being taken up there, which is great news.
