Building recording Detailed recording of historic buildings before they are altered, repaired or demolished
PCA's Historic Buildings team records the fabric, architecture and development of historic buildings and structures, combining site investigation with historical research, photography and drawn recording.
Understanding what survives
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.
