Proposals for a regeneration project which will see Rathmullan Abbey and the town’s Napoleonic gun battery revitalised as visitor attractions are going out to public consultation.

The public consultation by Donegal County Council and Rathmullan-The Way Forward CLG is running from Thursday, June 2 to Thursday, June 16.

The project and draft designs focus on the gun battery and the abbey, two of the key built heritage assets in the town, both of which are protected structures.

The draft design proposals have been prepared by the award-winning design consultancy service Robin Lee Architecture.

The council says the project is rooted in the principles of heritage restoration, town centre renewal and rural regeneration in proposing the transformation of landmark and underutilised assets at the historic core of Rathmullan.

The project will also include the development of a community hub with digital capacities for the community, business and remote working.

The plans can be viewed online here.
