Belvedere House is one of eight midlands amenities receiving funding today.
The jewel in the crown of Westmeath tourism is set for a €200,000 facelift.
Belevdere House and Gardens in Mullingar is one of the eight midlands recipients of this year's Historic Structures Fund.
It'll facilitate repairs to the roof, chimneys and parapet which will be completed by September - while some of the other big beneficiaries include Tullamore Gaol and Cuffsborough House in Ballacolla,
