Merkinch Welfare Hall

A 1.2M restoration project for Merkinch Welfare Hall. The Hall was built in 1914 by the Catch My Pal Union.

Thanks to the intervention of Merkinch Enterprise and feasibility studies carried out by the Highland Buildings Preservation Trust, a new use has been found for the hall.

The "Fit for the Future" project and a 1.2M multi funded building contract is currently underway to save and restore this listed building to its former glory.

Guided tours only.

Visitors should come to the Bike Shed at 23 Grant Street first to collect hard hats, high viz vests and torches - sensible footwear must be worn. Guided tours for small groups will start from there between 10-12.30. Please note that this is a construction site and any access to the building will be at the contractors discretion. Any area deemed to be a risk to health and safety will be closed off.
