Conservation Advice on Vacant Traditional Houses
The Department of Housing, Local Government, and Heritage has announced the Conservation Advice Scheme for Vacant Traditional Houses. The Conservation Advice Grant Scheme for Vacant Traditional Houses is an expanded funding scheme to provide grants for expert conservation advice to owners of vacant traditional houses who are availing of, or considering, the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant. The Conservation Advice Grant Scheme provides grants to cover 67% of the costs (up to a maximum grant of €5,000) of having a conservation expert with proven and appropriate expertise:
- visit a vacant or derelict traditional building
- conduct a survey, and
- compile tailored conservation advice for the property owner.
Full details of the scheme and application forms are available at gov.ie - Conservation Advice Grant Scheme for Vacant Traditional Houses
