Regeneration ideas progressing well for Castletown

Wed, 01 Aug 2012

Ideas for the regeneration of the Island’s ancient capital are progressing rapidly according to the local MHK.

Richard Ronan, who is chairman of the Castletown Regeneration Committee, said numerous different plans on how to revitalise the area are currently being drawn up.

It’s part of an island-wide regeneration scheme and will see things like new seating areas, paving and lighting systems installed.

Mr Ronan said the committee would be working closely with Manx National Heritage:
