The Millport Town Hall renovation project is seeing “steady progress” as the finish line comes into sight.

The renovation of the iconic building is set to be complete around the turn of the year, following extensive works at the Clifton Street building.

Throughout the summer, new walls and beams have been installed, as progress continues at pace ahead of the grand opening.

A spokesperson said: “The walls above the Lesser Town Hall have been completed, the joists installed and openings created for roof lights that will make our rear holiday flat bright and sunny.

“The middle flat will be created by continuing the new wall to the end of the frontage currently occupied by the former ladies toilet, the walls and windows of which will be knocked out to create the enlarged space for yet more rooms with stunning views.

“The glulam beams that will make the ceilings in both the Lesser Town Hall and the ceiling and window surrounds to our wonderful entrance atrium bright and modern have also been fitted.

“Working in partnership with Garrison House a shared bin store facility has been built by a Millport contractor.”

When completed, the hall will include a heritage centre, kitchen, men’s shed, community garden, main hall and three flats for letting.
