The installation of CCTV and fire detection systems is essential to improving the safety, security and protection of the Kirk. As parts of the building have remained vacant in recent years, the property has become increasingly vulnerable to vandalism, unauthorised access and the risk of fire.

The proposed works include the installation of CCTV cameras together with modern smoke alarm and fire detection systems throughout the building. These measures will help protect visitors, users and the historic fabric of the Kirk by providing both active monitoring and early fire detection.
