Listed Building consent received for the first phase of works to Boleskine House

Under application reference 20/01665/LBC, the Highland Council has today given permission for the first phase of the repair and reinstatement works to Boleskine House.  These works include the removal of the modern cement render on the exterior of the building; removal of modern concrete sub-floors; repair and consolidation of structural stone walls and chimneys and replacement dressed stonework to match damaged original stone.  A positive comment from Historic Environment of Scotland was provided saying, “We welcome the proposed consolidation works to this vulnerable shell to protect it”.  It is anticipated that with permission in place formal works will commence to the building shortly.
