The restoration and redevelopment of the A-listed Pollok Country Park Stables and Sawmill is moving onto the next phase.
The project - which has £13.5million of funding from the UK Government, with a £1.5m capital contribution from Glasgow City Council - will see the dilapidated stables, courtyard and sawmill transformed into a net-zero carbon "Living" Heritage Centre and community and visitor attraction.
It will be based around the famous Clydesdale Horses and the development of traditional power generation into modern renewable technologies.
The construction contract for the project has now been awarded to Morrisons Construction.
When complete, as well as the world-class heritage centre, there will be a cafe and shop, education facilities, community, event and meeting spaces, and the re-intrododuction of Clydesdale horses to Pollok Country Park.
Construction on the final phase will begin in early 2026 and is expected to be completed by late spring 2027.
Earlier work on the project saw essential roof repairs and stabilisation works to secure the structure prior to the beginning of the main works.
Councillor Ruairi Kelly, convener for Built Heritage and Development at Glasgow City Council, said: "The restoration of the Pollok Stables and Sawmill will see these fantastic A listed buildings in a beautiful location brought back to life and add to the list of world-class attractions in the country park.
"Their redevelopment will see 18th and 21st century technologies brought together in a project that will be of tremendous interest to a wide range of people."
Alongside the main contractor Morrisons Construction is the design team for the project, comprising experts from Page\Park, Narro Associates, RYBKA, and Doig + Smith.
