Love lights up Castle Rock on Valentine's Day
The line "Look to the living, love them, and hold on", by the award-winning Scottish poet, Douglas Dunn will be projected on to the north face of Castle Rock from dusk on St Valentine's Day.
Mr Dunn said: "I'm really chuffed – it's like having my name in lights above a theatre. And what a theatre. I'm so pleased to be involved."
