DUNOON BURGH HALL

The recently refurbished Dunoon Burgh Hall is open to all as a creative, cultural hub for Cowal. The historic “B” listed building is now a fully accessible venue for exhibitions, performances and gatherings. Alongside a gallery and theatre, the venue offers creative workshop spaces and a café.

The restoration of Dunoon Burgh Hall is an inspiring story of a small Scottish community coming together to preserve its rich, cultural heritage. The building was rescued from demolition by the community, who worked with the John McAslan Family Trust to purchase it from Fyne Homes housing association in 2008 for a token £1.
