Six councils receive Historic Scotland funding
Historic Scotland has confirmed that funding worth nearly £3m is to be shared by six local authorities to help fund regeneration projects.
Conservation Area Regeneration Scheme (CARS) grants include a £500,000 award towards heritage-led regeneration plans in Portsoy, Aberdeenshire. Funding for schemes in Rothesay (£499,933); Ayr (£498,244); and Anstruther (£500,000) form part of larger projects within a townscape heritage initiative.
Dingwall and Irvine are the other locations to benefit from funding announced by Historic Scotland, which will also provide technical information for all projects. Scottish culture minister Fiona Hyslop said: "The successful projects in Irvine, Rothesay, Portsoy, Anstruther, Dingwall and Ayr, are centring attention on buildings that represent something about the character of these towns."
