Led by wide ranging partnershipTH: grants up to £2m to improve built historic environment of conservation areas in need of investment in villages, towns or cities. Regenerate economically disadvantaged historic areas for the benefit of local residents, workers and visitors. This can include repair and re-use of vacant buildings, reinstate original architectural features on buildings e.g. shopfronts, improve public realm (footpaths, street furniture)HE: grants up to £5m to support the conservation and adaptation of an individual historic building or coherent group of buildings for an end use which actively contributes to sustainable development in areas experiencing economic disadvantage.
