Abstract： |
As part of the United Kingdom, Scotland has its own Parliament, and many small towns. These towns are facing major challenges due to not only the impacts of international economic changes, but also lack of coherent national and local policy and their own inherent limitations. In particular, small towns that are remote and have ost their main economic base are highly vulnerable. Conservation of small towns’ heritage is part of a move to a more environmentally sustainable future. Innovative repositioning, as well as a “small town health check” developed by Built Environment Forum Scotland have provided new thoughts and methods in the conservation of small towns. |
