A Conservation Assessment Report is a detailed document that surveys and analyses the condition of a historic site or object, identifies key issues, and sets out clear, practical recommendations for conservation or repair.
Our reports are evidence based, proportionate, and tailored to each asset, ensuring they meet the expectations of heritage bodies, planners, and conservation professionals.
Historical background and significance of the site or object
Detailed condition survey and photographic documentation
Diagnosis of issues and risks
Methodology for assessment and analysis
Budget estimates and suggested next steps
We begin by discussing your asset, objectives, and any specific concerns to ensure the assessment is appropriately scoped.
A detailed site visit is carried out, using visual inspection and photographic recording to document condition and key features.
Survey findings are combined with historical research and contextual analysis to build a clear understanding of the asset.
We prepare a clear, comprehensive report outlining condition, issues, significance, and tailored recommendations.
We talk you through the report, answer any questions, and provide support for next steps, including planning, funding, or conservation works.
Private owners of historic buildings or monuments
Heritage organisations and conservation trusts
Local authorities and public bodies
Architects, planners, and project managers
If you are looking to understand, protect, or restore a heritage asset, a Conservation Assessment Report provides the clarity and confidence needed to move forward responsibly.
