Midsteeple Quarter

Midsteeple Quarter is a response to community-led consultation which uncovered a consensus amongst local people, businesses, groups and agencies that a priority for a ‘future Dumfries’ is a more diverse town centre with people living in the town centre and a mix of new businesses/shops, as well as culture, leisure and services.

The project will see the local community to take back control of a group of underused and neglected High Street buildings and refurbish these as a contemporary living, working, socialising, learning and enterprising quarter. A new beating heart for the town that could be a catalyst for to grow a new thriving and resilient town.

Since the inception of Midsteeple Quarter, I have photographed events, workshops and public consultations.
