Lots of valuable work underway to help test and build the case for a community cooperative hub in this critical location.

Creation of interactive 3-D models a great use of @ArchHFund Harnessing Heritage grant - funded through @CommunitiesNI Regeneration Stream and @WestonFdn

@FirstStreetCoop @nihecommunity @ArchHFundNI @ThePilgrimTrust @HeritageFundNI @CommunitiesNI @TrademarkBF This would be an excellent space to house the ‘Peacewall Archive’ -telling the story of this place, and its transition from conflict to peace. So many visit Cupar Way daily, but have no place to understand its history or potential future condition. https://t.co/OSBUAeCHDh
