The funding came from grants of £101,000 from both the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) and Historic Environment Scotland plus £18,000 from the congregation and reclaimed VAT. Local construction company One Call Ltd & Scaffolding contractor Perth Scaffolding was successful in tendering for this. The project aims to restore the stonework, rainwater facilities and stained glass work to ensure the preservation of the Tay Street church.
