Heritage

Preserving heritage, enriching our community

The aim is to preserve and enhance identified heritage places adopting best practice.

Identified heritage places provide unique connection to our past, contribute to cultural identity, stimulate economic activity and support environmental sustainability.

Whether cultural, historical or natural, these places are irreplaceable resources that provide long-term benefits to individuals, communities and the global society.

Safeguarding them through careful ongoing maintenance is essential for fostering a deeper appreciation of our shared history, preserving valuable knowledge and ensuring that current and future generations can learn from and enjoy the legacy of the past.

Capital works will require specialist heritage advice during the concept/development phase to ensure the works do not negatively affect the sites heritage value and local heritage listing. This may also include advice on objects found below ground.
