"entrepreneurs may show an interest in trying to negate the years of neglect."
There's a big word in there MAY - what if they don't, it may be another 50 years until there is another opportunity like there may be at present comes along, what condition would the Heritage be in in 50 years time?
£60k might do some repairs, but it will take a lot more to even make the place secure. Do you know how much vandalism there is on the Heights, how much WHPS and EH spend on repairing damage and stolen equipment?
The only way that they can be truely secure for the future is with a permanent presence up there with something like a memorial, or a tourist attraction that gets numbers similar to Dover Castle that can be self-funding, secure and free from anti-social behavious and vandalism. This doesn't come cheap !!
If Alexander has his way, he wants the place to get overgrown, discourage too many people from going up there but 'ask' some 'body' for millions of pounds to repair some walls
If it is all so simple where are your letters over the last 20 years to philanthropists asking for the easy to get money
