Drumshanbo s historic High Street in need of repair
Reporter:
Drumshanbo s unique elevated High Street is in need of heritage works and repair.
Cllr Enda McGloin is calling on the Council to consider an application to revamp and repair Drumshanbo’s historic High Street.
He said upon a recent inspection, the parapet and stones are “worn and need attention.” He asked if the Heritage Officer could assist them to gain funding.
Leitrim County Council said it is “not the role of the Heritage Officer to prepare applications for funding under either the Historic Structures Fund or of the parallel Built Heritage Investment Scheme. The Heritage Officer can offer advice on the application process itself but the Heritage Officer is part of the assessment panel of applications which are then proposed for funding by Leitrim County Council.”
