The 200-year-old former chapel and theatre on the Colzium Estate has undergone an extensive renovation and modernisation development.
Features include a new compact visitor centre, café and toilet complex, improved access to the Colzium Walled Garden and a new disabled car park. In addition, a 1970s extension was demolished and replaced with an outdoor café area and the 152-year-old clock restored.

Cllr Heather McVey, Chair of CultureNL, which will manage the facility on behalf of the council, said: "The building fell into disrepair when the theatre it housed closed in the 2000s.
"A number of options were looked at for the building and everyone was committed to saving this building as a vital part of the estate.
"I'm pleased to say that once again it will become a community asset to be proud of in one of Kilsyth's most important greenspaces."
