Why do we choose to designate certain parts of our built environment as heritage? How can conservation areas and other historic places continue to evolve to meet the needs of new housing, economic development, and community enhancement? What principles guide us in evaluating the impact of new development or alterations to our significant heritage assets? And what about the future of conservation? In exploring these questions, this book aims to provide a foundation for planners and other professionals in understanding the key concepts of conservation and their practical application.
It begins by setting out the values and principles that underpin the current conservation-planning systems, exploring their historical context and evolution, and critically examining these systems and potential alternatives. Through a diverse range of examples, including historic and modern buildings, conservation areas, world heritage sites, parks, and gardens, the book focuses on decision-making and managing change. It examines how the conservation of the historic environment has become increasingly intertwined with other social and economic policy objectives, identifying key lessons and implications for future policy development and planning practice.
Understanding the significance of our built environment and the challenges of preserving it for future generations requires a comprehensive approach. This book serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to navigate the complex terrain of conservation and make informed decisions that balance the needs of development, heritage, and community.
