Older properties in the town centre are eligible for funding of up to £25,000 towards projects to renovate and improve frontages, adding character to the street scene more reminiscent of 100 years or more ago.

The deadline for expressions of interest to NKDC is the end of May.

One of the areas currently being looked at for enhancement is Northgate, including some of the shopfronts near Riverside Cycles and Love and Lace Bridal shops.

Here we have a present day picture of the street and one from around a century ago.
