‘Built to Last’: Lecture 2 Enabling Community and Heritage-Led Regeneration

Rita Harkin and Leah O’Neill from the Architectural Heritage Fund will highlight the trials and tribulations, as well as the benefits, involved in delivering grassroots regeneration projects.

In this talk they will use examples from the Village Catalyst and Harnessing Heritage seed funding programmes, outlining the project journeys of The Woolstore, Caledon; Chandler’s House, Rathfriland; The Old Post Office, Gracehill and Bangor Courthouse - all featured in the Built to Last book.
