The ongoing Zetland Park Regeneration Project will see an upgrade of the popular public space’s pathways and four paths have now been named – Inchyra Way, Dalgrain Walk, Rannoch Avenue and Portonian Path, which will be completed by autumn this year.

People have the opportunity to purchase bricks – or dedication stones as they are known – which they can have special messages put on to form part of the new Portonian path.

A project spokesperson said: “Along the length of the Portonian Path, we are offering people the opportunity to purchase a named stones which will be inset into the path.

“These stones can be personalised with names and messages – wording can extend over a maximum of three lines, with a maximum of 15 characters on each line, including spaces.

“Some of the messages we have had on the stones so far are fantastic.”
