Heritage statements Assessing the significance of heritage assets and the impact of proposed development
Heritage Statements provide the evidence needed to understand the significance of historic buildings, structures, places and their settings, and to assess how proposed changes may affect them.
Supporting planning decisions
Our Heritage Statements draw together historical research, site assessment and an understanding of the building or place to identify its significance and the contribution made by its setting. We assess the potential impact of proposed development and provide clear, proportionate advice to support planning applications and discussions with planning authorities.
We can prepare statements for listed buildings, conservation areas and other heritage assets, including proposals involving alteration, extension, change of use or new development within a historic setting.
