Delete site

I want to delete an old blog that I never use, and would prefer no one stumbles on it.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
We cannot do this for you. You have to act.
All blogs are independent websites. What you do on one has NO impact on others. To delete a WordPress.COM hosted blog you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to navigate to Dashboard > Tools > Delete Site. The guide is here http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
https://wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com
*Replace “NAME_OF_BLOG” with the actual name of the blog in the URL above.
If the log-in information is lost you need to visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

To empty site content and keep the URL see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
Alternatively, to change blog visibility to Private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3. See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings
