Historic Thatched Buildings Grant 2025
January 17, 2025
The purpose of the scheme is to protect the heritage value of historic thatched roof buildings across Ireland, including dwellings and other structures. An application under the BHIS Historic Thatched Buildings Stream does not preclude a separate application under the Historic Structures Fund or the main stream of the BHIS, but only one grant can be availed of per structure. A Method Statement or description of the proposed works, drawn up in consultation with an experienced thatcher or other relevant building professional, is required.
The maximum grant available will depend on the type of building and the nature of the applicant (up to €20,000). No applicant is guaranteed a set amount of funding under the scheme in any given year.
Any historic thatched structure built before 1970, including domestic or commercial properties is eligible.
Deadline: 17th January 2025 (20th December in Co. Meath)
