Newly transformed Kilmardinny House re-opens
Kilmardinny House has been rejuvenated by a £2.73m programme of works - delivered by East Dunbartonshire Council in conjunction with the Leisure and Culture (EDLC) Trust and development partner hub West Scotland (hWS) with Clark Contracts.
The original A-listed building has undergone internal refurbishment within the multi-functional rooms and facilities, creating a small studio and a new platform lift - installed to increase accessibility.
