Memorial gets funding for repairs report
Falkirk Council applied to the Centenary Memorials Restoration Fund, managed by the War Memorials Trust, and was awarded £1500 for the study of the memorial in Zetland Park to take place.
The local landmark has a number of issues that need to be addressed, including deteriorated stonework, faded inscriptions and challenges related to nesting birds and bats which require full assessment prior to undertaking conservation and repair works.
