Local organisations have united to form a steering group to support the restoration of Llwyd Mansion as Oswestry Town Council prepares a next-phase bid to The National Lottery Heritage Fund in 2026.
The Llwyd Mansion: Framing the Future restoration project began in 2023 when the council purchased the building, bringing it into public ownership for the first time in its history. A successful £479,972 first-round application to the Heritage Fund enabled the development phase to begin in March this year.
The steering group will ensure that the project reflects the needs and aspirations of the community as the project progresses. Members include Oswestry Borderland Tourism, Oswestry Community Action (QUBE), Designs in Mind, Derwen College, Oswestry School, Shropshire Council, and Historic England.
