Abstract
The Thistle Property Trust (TPT) was established in Stirling in 1928. They aimed to restore historic and traditional buildings which had become dilapidated slum housing in Stirling’s Top of the Town area. One of the first building conservation trusts, the TPT improved the living conditions of the city’s poor whilst conserving Stirling’s historic built environment. They were a forward-thinking organisation, employing and training women property managers, inspired by the work of Octavia Hill (1838-1912). The legacy of the TPT lives on in Scotland’s contemporary City Heritage Trusts.
