Townscape Heritage Initiative
Public Realm

‘Public Realm’ is a term for areas where the public have general access outside buildings
Three Public Realm Projects are included in the Township Heritage Initiative (THI):-
- An interpretation project at the castle – this is designed to improve the appearance of the front of the castle and provide material which explains the history of the castle, future proposals and how this links in with the THI.
- Resurfacing Cromwell Street between North beach and South Beach with good quality materials to improve the appearance of this pedestrianised area.
- The repair/restoration of a section of the Lews Castle walls using traditional lime mortar and masonry. This project will also have a training element in lime mortar and masonry for local contractors.
