RPS Britain Planning & Development

Conservation

Conservation issues are some of the most material considerations in the registration and determination of planning applications, for the prevention of harm to our historic environment, and the preservation of our Heritage Sites, historic towns and landscapes, and buried archaeological remains.

Landowners and Developers alike, are finding it increasingly difficult to actively manage change within the historic environment, comply with all statutory requirements, and adapt their priorities to embrace sustainable solutions to land and building development.

RPS has a positive and collaborative approach to conservation, and our integrated specialist teams draw on global experience of archaeology, environmental assessment, planning, and architecture to bring forward solutions for historic buildings, historic townscapes and landscapes, and historic parks and gardens that may previously have been perceived as difficult or impossible
