Town centres in Scotland: A new direction under devolution

Author

Abstract

Scotland is on the brink of a momentous referendum about its relationships within the United Kingdom and Europe. But in many ways, Scotland has already carved out a distinctive path in terms of town centres, reflecting the different environment, needs, dynamics and solutions available. This brief paper reflects on these differences by considering the work of the Town Centre Regeneration Fund, Architecture and Design Scotland’s award winning exhibition on the High Street, the establishment of Scotland’s Towns Partnership, the National Towns Centre Review that is under way and the success of BIDs under distinctive legislation in Scotland.
