Historic Sites

Historic and Cultural Verified Views

Protection and conservation of historic properties and sites is a key component of the planning system. Restricted availability of sites, especially in urban settings often means that new development can be in close proximity to these protected sites. Views both to and from the new development and historic site need to be considered, ensuring that the character is not adversely affected but allowing the new design to work alongside. Gauging the visual impact is extremely important and verified views are a useful tool in the assessment process.

It is important to work closely with design teams to ensure that the design intent is properly presented within accurate visuals for the purposes of conservation. This may be to show the impact of a proposed development, or to show how a new development will work with and expand the use of an existing site historic site. Basic parameter height models or more detailed visual renders can be produced for the various aspects and consideration that are unique to each site.
