Panbride Stables, Carnoustie

Built in the mid-to-late 1800’s to accompany the adjacent Panbride House, Panbride stables is an excellent example of this ethos where, without intervention, this Category B listed building would likely have been left to deteriorate beyond rescue.

Through a series of feasibility studies, close engagement with Angus Council and Historic Scotland, detailed and technical design, and through the property changing hands amid construction, Wellwood Leslie Architects assisted several clients to successfully strip-out, refurbish, and convert the existing stables to form five luxury boutique holiday rental units.

Aberlour Chirdcare Trust Charity Partner

Wellwood Leslie Chartered Architects are delighted to announce our charity partner for 2024 will be Aberlour Childcare Trust.

We recently met with the organisation to discuss the important work that they do to help disadvantaged children and families in Scotland to have a brighter future. Aberlour play a vital role in Scotland in addressing poverty and inequality and Wellwood Leslie recognises the importance of supporting such organisations in order to create a meaningful difference in the communities where we all live.

Along with a small donation that will contribute directly to Aberlour Childcare Trust's Urgent Assistance Fund we will be encouraging our staff to help raise money this year in support of the charity’s wider causes. As part of that commitment, we will be participating in the annual St Andrews to Dundee KiltWalk to help raise additional funds for the charity. More information will follow in due course.

Our fundraising ambitions and our donation to Aberlour underscore Wellwood Leslie's unwavering commitment to making a positive impact in our community and align with one of our core values of social responsibility. We look forward to seeing what can be achieved this year.
