Build Heritage Investment Scheme 2025

Applications to Cavan County Council are invited for the Built Heritage Investment Scheme (BHIS).


 WHO CAN APPLY?

The BHIS (Built Heritage Investment Scheme) provides funding for repair/conservation works to the following types of buildings (or qualifying structures):

  1. Protected structures (buildings that are listed on the Record of Protected Structures)

  2. Proposed protected structures (buildings that the Local Authority propose to include on this list)

  3. Structures in Architectural Conservation Areas (ACAs)

  4. Vernacular buildings

  5. Historic Shopfronts


Owners of eligible buildings can apply to the grant scheme. If you are unclear whether your structure is eligible under this scheme, contact Cavan County Council for clarification (contact information below).


All works must be planned and overseen by qualified and experienced conservation professionals. These conservation professionals may be able to assist you in your application. Applications must be accompanied by a Method Statement. Only one application will be considered per historic structure.


HOW MUCH CAN I APPLY FOR? 

The funding awarded for successful projects will be between €2,500 and a maximum of €50,000.


The total value grants provided for individual projects must not exceed 80% of the total project cost and is determined by the Local Authority on a case by case basis. Applicants will have to contribute at least 20% of the cost of the works (but in most instances this figure will be higher).

CLOSING DATE: 27th September 2024.
