The National Lottery Heritage Fund
The Engine Shed has been supported by a grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to create Scotland’s first dedicated building conservation centre. It enables us to encourage understanding of traditional building materials and skills among the public and professionals and raise standards in conservation for traditional buildings.
