Issue details
Formal offer of Historic Buildings Grant to Columbia Road Nursery School
Columbia Market Primary School have applied
for a Historic Buildings Grant of up to £10,000 to contribute
towards the cost of repair of the grade II listed railings, gate
and gate piers and reinstatement of missing lanterns in front of
the school.
The school has been offered a grant of £15,000 from the
Heritage of London Trust (HOLT) and the Historic Buildings Grant
would be used as match funding for the works.
The proposed work will improve the condition of the gates and
railings and their future sustainability will be secured through
appropriate conservation repair. It will enhance appearance,
character and setting of the listed buildings and Hackney Road
Conservation Area.
The funding will additionally allow school children, parents and
local community groups to be involved in the conservation work
through talks and informative sessions as part of the Heritage of
London Trust’s ‘Proud Places’ programme.
