Follow on Google News | Lottery Funding Secured For Restoration of Historic Loch Ness ManorBy: The Boleskine House Foundation SCIO The investment will support capital work to complete the interior restoration of Boleskine House and will also enable a wider programme of community engagement, supporting the vision of Boleskine as a community and nature hub that has been at the core of ambition for the future of the historic property. "Receiving these funds is a monumental step for our organization and the local community," said Keith Readdy, Chairman of The Boleskine House Foundation. "It allows us to complete the interior restoration of this treasured site, preserving its legacy for future generations to experience and learn from. We are profoundly grateful for this support and look forward to bringing this vision to life." Recently the Foundation lodged an application with the Highland Council for final Listed Building Consent for the planned design of the house interiors. The designs, created by LDN Architects, reimagine the historical elements of the B-listed building, with a nod to important eras of the house's past, while reducing its carbon footprint. The £250,000 investment, thanks to National Lottery players, will primarily support capital works but also includes funding to support The Boleskine House Foundation's volunteers to deliver community engagement activity.
