Concerns over the loss of Townscape Protection Area status in parts of Milngavie
They include the Review’s recommendation to withdraw Local Garden and Designed Landscape status from the rural periphery of Mains Estate to the north west of Milngavie and also Tannoch Loch/ Barloch Moor area.
The MHC Group says the Review completely ignores the historical significance of these two areas to the development of Milngavie and the pleasure that these natural environments give to the local community.
The Group is also disturbed that both the Keystone Road/ Avenue area and the Ferguson Avenue/Balvie Road area are set to lose their Townscape Protection Area status ( TPA ). This was a Council designation awarded to these areas in the past because of their historical significance and distinctive architectural features.
