Although the Lottery is currently considering a proposal to allow private Pier owners to apply for Grant funding.

EDIT: It appears that the Lottery has actually given the go ahead as from next year for private owners of Listed Buildings to apply for limited Lottery Funding;

"Dame Jenny Abramsky, chair of the Heritage Lottery Fund, said that from next year private owners would be eligible to apply for match funding grants of up to £100,000."

what are the realistic chances of the owners applying for a grant I wander and would £100,000 be enough

What an interesting development.

£100,000 can be made to go a long way, especially if it is match funded with another £100k from the owners.

I shall give this information to the Pier management, in case they are unaware of it.

To me this is exactly the sort of thing that the lottery money should be spent on, I hated it being wasted on that running and jumping nonsense in London last year! :twoface:

It's more how you complete the application, too;  I've won similar amounts from the National Lottery in the past and what gets you in with a chance is meeting their very detailed criteria, which change year to year. Not easy and rather arduous.

Contractors are on site and have constructed a scaffolding access platform at the landing stage.

Noticed that yesterday, looks lovely hardwearing stuff. Didn't envy the men lugging those huge machines around though. Nice to see a local firm being used.
