Tornagrain Public Exhibition

02/11/2007
The Estate will, on the 7th and 8th of November, be holding the first of three public Exhibitions in Petty Church Hall, Tornagrain, to allow members of local communities to come and view the output from the first stage of the preparation of a planning application for the Estate's proposed new town at Tornagrain. The planning application for Tornagrain, which is expected to be submitted in Summer 2008, will be accompanied by an Environmental Impact Assessment, which will look at the effect that the proposal will have on the site and how any impact will be mitigated. The Estate's consultants have examined the current conditions of the site across a number of fields, such as ecology, landscape, socio-economic and transport and will be displaying their initial findings at the Exhibition. The consultants will also be present at the Exhibition and happy to discuss any issues with members of local communities and answer questions. The Exhibition will also be available to take away, as a brochure, so that its contents can be digested at leisure and comments later forwarded to the Estate.

The Exhibition will be open from 12 noon until 9 pm on the 7th of November and from 10 am until 9 pm on the 8th of November. Petty Church Hall can be found at Petty Church on the A96 opposite the existing hamlet of Tornagrain.
