History

The Scottish Lime Centre Trust (SLCT) won a commission to carry out the survey on behalf of the Inverkeithing Heritage Regeneration project - listen to find out the why, and the how! Roz also explains jut how remarkable the Lime Centre's Charlestown location is, a remarkable heritage site near Inverkeithing, easily accessed along the Fife coastal path, from the equally fascinating Inverkeithing. Roz has led the Scottish Lime Centre Trust, a pioneering training and advocacy organisation, promoting and teaching the use of traditional building methods and techniques, for over 25 years.
