BECK Scotland is proud to continue our affiliation with the Edinburgh World Heritage Trust for another year.
The team at Edinburgh World Heritage work tirelessly to ensure that the Old and New Towns of the Edinburgh World Heritage Site is understood and conserved for both current and future generations.
A diverse range of iconic buildings and monuments are included in the UNSECO World Heritage Site, from medieval architecture to Georgian statues.
Listed heritage buildings feature prominently throughout the BECK Scotland portfolio and the team is dedicated to ensuring the legacy of our home is protected, sensitively restored and preserved for many years to come.

The BECK Scotland team are currently hard at work at the historic Category B-listed Grosvenor Hotel in Edinburgh, which dates to the 1860’s and was designed by renowned Scottish architect Robert Matheson. Extensive works are being carried out to both the main hotel and townhouse buildings, which are considered of historic and archaeological significance. Works include restoring roofs and period facades.
Engaging with EWH’s conservation skill and expertise ensures we are learning from specialists, as we work to deliver the highest quality of restoration possible.
Sarah Charley Lee, Business Development Executive for BECK Scotland says: “We are delighted to grow our partnership with the Edinburgh World Heritage Trust. Their work and commitment to the City of Edinburgh is a testament to the world of Heritage and Conservation. Working within heritage buildings is often a real challenge. It is so important to BECK Scotland we have the knowledge we need to restore these buildings elegantly and accurately. Christina and the team provide us with this valuable support and are a joy to collaborate with!”
Christina Sinclair, Director of Edinburgh World Heritage, says: “It’s important to engage with businesses such as BECK who are “at the cliff face” of restoration projects to ensure that our advice is not only heard but put into action. Caring for a city like Edinburgh requires buy-in from all sorts of stakeholders, and we are proud to see BECK investing in the city’s heritage. We encourage any business in Edinburgh to explore our Business Supporters Programme to see how we can work together to continue to improve the city for generations to come.”
