The local council has bid to Historic England for the funding
Mid Devon District Council has applied for £1.2 million of Government funding to support the regeneration of Cullompton’s historic town centre.
The Council submitted the bid to Historic England for a share of the High Streets Heritage Action Zone, under the Government’s High Streets Programme. The bid is specific to Cullompton.
If successful the funding will allow the Council to redesign the high street to improve the historic setting of the town and enhance the experience for residents and visitors. It will support the re-design of the public areas including improved traffic management, and enhanced public spaces.
The scheme will also allow property owners to apply for grants to part fund the reinstatement of historic features and to refurbish specific properties in the Conservation Area.
The successful bids will be announced by Historic England in Autumn 2019.
