Which buildings are we working on?

Our Grant Scheme

We’ve allocated major grant funding to help preserve, restore, and enhance historic buildings within the High Street Heritage Action Zone. You can see which buildings we’re working on below. All works are using traditional materials and methods. Our grants varied between 50% and 75% of the cost of the works.
