Outdated reference edit

Latest comment: 13 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The reference http://www.doorsopendays.org.uk/opendays/area_programmes.aspx?areaid=6, retrieved 2008-01-13 has changed its content and now refers to the Doors Open scheme for Clackmannanshire: 04 September 2010 – 05 September 2010. It does not now mention Menstrie castle at all so we need references for the following statements:

"The castle was built around 1560 by the Alexander family";

"By the end of the Second World War, the castle was in such disrepair that the Scottish actor and conservationist, Moultrie Kelsall, led a campaign to secure funding and protection to aid its restoration.";

"By 1964 the restoration was completed, and the castle was converted into flats."

Any ideas ? Craig Omus (talk) 20:38, 25 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
