The first major work on a multi-million pound regeneration project for Dumfries is set to get under way.
The Midsteeple Quarter project has awarded the contract to transform The Oven site in the town’s High Street into new homes and business units to Cumbrian company RH Irving Construction.
The community-owned enterprise has spent years raising funds to buy up shops close to the Midsteeple landmark to bring them back into new use.
