Comprehensive Heritage Impact Assessment
Ensuring your project
respects historical significance while achieving modern goals
Understanding the importance of Heritage Impact Assessments (HIA)
Protecting Cultural Heritage
An HIA helps identify how your proposed development might impact historical sites. By assessing & mitigating potential risks, it ensures your plans meet local planning requirements while safeguarding cultural assets for future generations.
Meeting Local Planning Requirements
Completing an HIA makes sure your project aligns with local & national planning standards. By spotting potential issues early, an HIA allows architects & developers to adjust plans, leading to a smoother approval process. If your development could affect a heritage asset or its setting, commissioning an HIA is essential.
Informed Decision-Making
HIAs show your client, the LPA, your design team, & other stakeholders that you've thoughtfully considered the potential impact on local heritage. They highlight the steps you've taken to identify, reduce, & mitigate any effects, ensuring everyone is on the same page.
