Cliff Swallow Relocation Help Needed (1 Viewer)

Hi,
I'm looking for plans for a structure to attract the local colony of Cliff Swallows. Their nests were removed from the grain silos over the winter by the town and the birds will be prevented from rebuilding when they return in April. The grain silo building is to be repurposed as condominiums.
From what I have read online and through email with Prof. Charles Brown's excellent site, "The Cliff Swallow Project", they are not easy to relocate. Their have been a few sites in USA that have successfully rehoused a colony, but plans for a structure aren't to be found.

I'm hoping someone here might know something useful.
Thanks in advance.

Nigel
