She met representatives from Crown Estate Scotland, the local community, and was able to better understand the issues and opportunities facing the people. Phase two of the consultation is now underway.
Crown Estate Scotland launched Whitehill Estate 2030’s second stage recently.
A spokesperson stated that the Whitehill Estate will be the focus of a community conversation. It will be able to explore how it can become a great place to live, work and visit.
