Like many other local communities, Killearn Community Council are working together with residents and stakeholders to develop a Local Place Plan for Killearn, which we will submit to Stirling Council in April 2025.

As the first part of this process, the Community Council have conducted an initial survey of residents and stakeholders over the past year, using the Place Standard Tool.

The responses we’ve received from the community using the Place Standard Tool have been really useful and we want to thank everyone that completed the survey.

We’ve gained a really deep understanding of people’s thoughts and feelings on a wide range of topics, and we’ll take all of that information forward, either in the LPP or via other channels, whichever is most appropriate.

In order to address some of the comments and suggestions which came up in the results of the Place Standard Tool, we’d like to ask several follow up questions.

Please rest assured that all data entered in this form is completely anonymous and will remain confidential.

Thank you for your support - Killearn Community Council

Question Title

* 1. NATURAL SPACES: “I feel able to enjoy the natural space that I can walk to from my doorstep.”

Question Title

* 2. PLAY & RECREATION: “There is little focus on providing facilities for teenagers in the village.”

Some people who responded to the survey talked about there not being sufficient play and recreation facilities – what kind of facilities of this kind would you like to see in Killearn, or do you think are currently lacking?

Question Title

* 3. HOUSING & COMMUNITY: “More homes suitable for first time buyers and for those who wish to remain living independently as they grow older."

Question Title

* 4. CHARACTER OF VILLAGE/CONSERVATION AREA: “It’s a great village with its own identity.”

Many people spoke highly in their comments of the unique historic character of Killearn and how attractive it is, in terms of facilities – What do you feel needs to be taken into account or preserved to retain Killearn’s character?

Question Title
