THE loading dock at Inglewood’s historic Old Goods Shed will be restored after Loddon Plains Landcare Network was last week named a grant recipient of the State Government’s Tiny Towns program.
Works will be the latest precinct improvement by the network.
Restoration will see rotting and crumbling retaining walls of the dock replaced in the same style.
“The dock area is easily more than 120 years old and the project will sympathetically make the area safe while continuing to preserve a historic part of the town,” said the network facilitator Will Sanson.
The network was granted $34,510 while Bridgewater Recreation Reserve will receive 47,564 to resurface multi-purpose courts used for tennis and netball.
The State Government said 159 successful projects worth over $5.1 million had been funded in the second round of the of the Tiny Towns Fund. Projects are in rural and regional towns of less than 5000 people.
