Buildings at Risk
There are over five hundred buildings on the 鈥榓t risk鈥� register in places across Northern Ireland. Most of them give a strong sense of place to a town or city but over the years they have been a bit neglected. However, The Princes Regeneration Trust believes these buildings should be restored for community use rather than being demolished. On the 21st November there is a special workshop in Hillsborough Castle to help save and restore them.聽
