Pre-planning advice Early advice to help you understand the archaeological and heritage requirements of your site
Considering archaeology and heritage at an early stage can help identify potential constraints, inform the design of a scheme and avoid delays later in the planning process. PCA provides practical advice and assessment to help you understand what may be required before a planning application is submitted.
Informed decisions from the outset
Our team can assess the archaeological and heritage potential of a site, review available evidence and advise on the scope of work likely to be required. This may include desk-based assessment, heritage assessment, consultation with planning authorities and the preparation of strategies for subsequent archaeological investigation.
Early advice allows archaeological and heritage considerations to be incorporated into project planning from the beginning, helping to establish a clear and proportionate approach as proposals develop.
