High Street Heritage Action Zone
Introduction
Great Yarmouth Borough Council, with Historic England and Great Yarmouth Preservation Trust, is delivering a £1.9m scheme putting heritage and the local community at the heart of revitalising the town centre.
The High Street Heritage Action Zone (HSHAZ) involves local people in repairing, conserving and building a better understanding of the area's historic buildings and sites, supporting regeneration and recovery, conserving buildings at risk, creating new facilities and giving people new skills.
The High Street Heritage Action Zone is a four-year programme, led by the Council in partnership with Historic England, who have awarded grant funding of £980,743. In addition to the main project partners, there are also a significant number of community engagement stakeholders involved. The HAZ complements the wider investment and regeneration ambitions supported by the £13.77m Future High Streets Fund and £20.1m Town Deal.
