Cockburn Conservation Trust (CCT) is a charity dedicated to the conservation and promotion of Scotland's architectural heritage. It works within the Alba Conservation Group, headed by the Alba Conservation Trust (ACT) and alongside the Scottish Historic Buildings Trust (SHBT).

It operates as a revolving fund building preservation trust (BPT) and concentrates on projects in the city of Edinburgh, the Lothians and the Scottish Borders. As a revolving fund trust, any surplus generated by one project goes to help seed-fund the next project. Generally projects are brought to us through our Trustees, the community or specialist interest group who wish to save the building from dereliction or demolition. If you know of any building which may need our help, please Contact Us.

PLEASE NOTE THAT COCKBURN CONSERVATION TRUST MOVED ON THURSDAY 12TH MARCH 2009 - OUR NEW ADDRESS IS FIRST FLOOR, 42 NORTH CASTLE STREET, EDINBURGH, EH2 3BN.
