Heritage impact statements evaluate how proposed developments, alterations or interventions will affect a building or area of heritage value.
These statements form an important part of the planning process, and we write heritage impact statements for planning applications.
Many planning applications can have an impact on these heritage assets. The asset could be a listed building, a conservation area or a scheduled ancient monument.
By entrusting a heritage and conservation expert with your heritage statements, you get access to industry expertise and gain a document tailored to the important details and facts around the impact proposed work may have on an asset of heritage value.
The heritage impact statements we put together here at Goldfinch Heritage look at the proposal as a whole, and how this is likely to affect the heritage asset itself.
Modern developments should always be considerate and sympathetic to heritage assets in order to protect and sustain built environments with a level of heritage significance.
Our heritage impact statements include visual and physical analysis of the heritage asset, and how any proposed changes may enhance the value of the heritage asset. Each heritage impact statement is naturally tailored to the application in question.
Creating heritage impact statements can often be laborious and time consuming for architectural firms or planners. This is why hiring a freelance heritage consultant to create heritage impact statements on your behalf makes sense.
