Historic buildings in Tipperary will receive over €365,000 in grant funding.
The money will support the repair and protection of older buildings.
In one of the restoration projects, €37,500 will be granted for the County Gaol in Nenagh with €18,000 for St. Mary’s Church in Killenaule
Nationally over 650 projects across the country will receive financial support with €8.1 million for the conservation and protection of architectural buildings and €1.25 million in support for thatched buildings.
Clonmel TD Michael Murphy also suggests that the Built Heritage Investment Scheme is a perfect example of an initiative to revitalise our town centres and to bring vacant and derelict buildings back into use.
