Community Meeting - Doune Broch Feasibility Study
Following the results of the last community consultation and feasibility study, we have been investigating the potential for improvements to the visitor centre and wider visitor offering at the Broch. This includes the proposal that was put forward of Urras Oighreachd Chàrlabhaigh purchasing the car-park and visitor centre from Urras nan Tursachan.
To allow us to investigate the potential for improvements and the suitability of any change of ownership structure we have secured funding, from the Scottish Land Fund, for surveys of the Broch Visitor Centre (building condition survey, valuation and asbestos survey) and some options appraisal and business planning by specialist consultants. The surveys have been carried out and the consultants (Duncan MacPherson, Faye MacLeod and Calum Macleod) are carrying out work on the business planning and options appraisal with a view to have a final report by the end of March. They have carried out stakeholder interviews and background research.
Normally the next stage would be a community meeting or drop-in session in the Community Centre to allow them to share their finding and gather feedback from the community. Sadly, that isn’t possible at this time, so we would like to invite anyone interested to a Zoom meeting on Monday 22 February at 7pm. To register, please email info@carlowayestatetrust.co.uk or phone 01851 643481.
