We carried out a public consultation in 2021.

73% of respondents were positive about our proposals to improve High Street. The shop front improvement scheme was the most popular of all proposals.

Shop front improvement scheme

A shop front improvement scheme will allow retailers to apply for match funding to carry out improvements to their store front. Details of this scheme and how retailers can apply is available on the shop front improvement grant scheme page.

Rejuvenation

Paving and the public realm on High Street will be rejuvenated to better complement the conservation area.
