Seven heritage projects across the UK have been allocated £14.8m by the National Lottery Heritage Fund to ‘reimagine and protect’ historic sites.

The largest grant of £4.6m will convert the Old Town Hall on the Isles of Scilly into a museum and cultural centre.

A joint project between the Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust, Medway Council and the University of Kent will also see a Grade II listed Police Section House converted into digital production studios.

Eilish McGuinness, chief executive, The National Lottery Heritage Fund, said: ‘What unites these projects is recognition of the heritage value of our industrial past, the incredible stories to be told and committed people.

‘We’re delighted that National Lottery funding ensures that this heritage will be valued, cared for, and sustained, for everyone, now and in the future.’
