Twenty-six Tipperary projects are to receive €147,377 in funding under the Built Heritage Investment Scheme (BHIS). 

Tipperary TD Michael Lowry confirmed the allocations today. 

€126,000 has been awarded for Built Heritage Projects and €21,377 for Conservation Repairs to Historic Thatched Structures. 

Deputy Lowry said that he would also like to acknowledge the dedication of the owners of these buildings and their willingness to invest their time and money in caring for our Built Heritage.

The BHIS is one of two Built Heritage Funding Schemes run by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, in association with Tipperary County Council. 

The scheme assists owners of Heritage Structures to meet their obligations to care for their properties. 

This includes those on the Local Authorities Record of Protected Structures list and those in Architectural Conservation Areas.

Individual allocations can be viewed below.
