We can advise on development in conservation areas or on development affecting listed buildings. We can produce detailed Conservation Area Character Assessments for proposals where these are required by the local planning authority or where such an assessment would assist the client's prospects of success.

Through negotiation with local authorities, and if necessary with English Heritage, our professional expertise is able to secure consents in sensitive locations. If applications are unsuccessful we can provide expert witnesses at public inquiries or prepare appeals by written representation.
