Background

• Mission Statement (Aims)

The Civic Trust has discussed over the years the role that it might play in improving the overall appearance of Linlithgow.  In 2004 the LCT committee decided to take the leading role, along with other local organisations, in the "Burgh Beautiful" project.

From a landscape point of view, the High street does not compare favourably with many other historic town centres. Visitors to the Palace must receive a distinctly unwelcoming impression of the town.  In addition, we ourselves will be happier going about our daily activities in a more cheerful environment.  A number of meetings were held and West Lothian Council was very keen that we should go ahead.
