If all goes to plan, then the UK will • the National Record Offices and the ratify the international convention in five legal deposit libraries in the UK the spring.

  • HERITAGE APPRAISAL MAPS for Conservation Area Assessment
    Rochdale MBC - Planning and Regulation - Development Control Service HERITAGE APPRAISAL MAPS for Conservation Area Assessment Heritage Appraisal Maps record the relative importance of elements of the townscape to a set scale. They complement a written assessment of the special architectural or historic interest, character and appearance. Heritage Appraisal Maps: 1. are a succinct way of storing complex information on the relative importance of the various heritage assets of a Conservation Area; 2. are not a descriptive tool but an evaluative one; 3. can be used for the rapid area assessment as well as supplementing a mainstream written appraisal; 4. are simpler to understand and more accessible than large amounts of text; 5. prevent inconsistency or “drift” in evaluation over time; 6. have consistent categories for different heritage assets, buildings, spaces, views etc.; 7. are an easy-to-use tool to aid decision making; and, 8. help to set conservation area boundaries. Ideally, every Conservation Area would have a Heritage Appraisal Map or GIS layer that records the value/contribution of each heritage asset in three broad areas of townscape. Buildings, Structures, Features & Monuments summarizing the contribution of each building and structure Spaces, Gardens & Parks summarizing the contribution of each open space Trees, Views, Vistas, Gateways & Landmarks recording value of key landscape features All three areas use a standardized hierarchy of importance, from “national heritage asset” to something making a “negative contribution”
