Appendix 1 Tarbert Heritage and Place Programme Funding Bids – Priority Building Proposals The following properties have been identified as meriting comprehensive repair, and as such substantial grant would be earmarked within the programme budget towards the restoration of these properties. Argyll Place Issues: Argyll Place is a highly prominent building which is at the point where if particular issues, concerning the rainwater goods and associated significant rot and damp are not addressed immediately, the building condition could deteriorate rapidly. Eligible works: Restoration of roof, including: rot works, slating, leadwork, chimneys and rainwater goods Structural repairs to stonework Undercliffe Issues: The rear elevation is constructed in very close proximity to the rock face and as such the building suffers from lack of indirect sun light, overgrown vegetation, increasing water run-off and loose rubble falling from the rock face. The roof is duo pitch and covered with cement concrete tiles which are in poor condition. The condition of the roof needs to be urgently addressed to stop any further rapid deterioration of the fabric and spread of rot. Similarly, issues relating to drainage at the rear of the building in connection with the rock face should be addressed urgently.
