Heritage
Our heritage assets are unique to the UK and conserving the best requires specialist skill and expertise. We have architects and planners trained and experienced in understanding the cultural and historic significance of these special assets. From Conservation Area assessments to the restoration of Grade I and Grade II listed buildings, historic garden reinstatement or consolidation and repair of Scheduled Ancient Monuments we can assist clients in conserving whilst also finding new, viable and sustainable uses for buildings and sites which will ensure their preservation for generations to come.
To fully appreciate the importance of any historic asset it is first necessary to research its past. How a building or site has developed over the years is key to understanding how it might develop in future. Our historic environment is man made and reflects the ethos and culture of those who first built it and the subsequent generations who altered it. We rarely believe it appropriate to preserve untouched the historic environment for to do so risks obsolescence. Instead we search for appropriate, sympathetic uses that preserve and enhance.
