The Heart of Kendal, funded by the UK Government’s Local Regeneration Fund (formerly known as the Levelling Up Fund), is a bold vision to revitalise Kendal by setting out an exciting approach to town centre regeneration. The projects aims to transform and regenerate the town centre in a way that is both sensitive to the town’s heritage and adaptive for the future, to create a better social, economic and cultural environment for all.

The enhancements of Market Place and Kent Street are aimed at creating a sense of arrival through increasing their role in the town. Kendal Market Place will be improved to create a high quality and vibrant space that encourages markets, events and activities for all. The proposals will look to create a more inviting space that limits vehicle dominance through a transformed public realm that reflects the character and identity of Kendal.
