Analysis
and recording for the conservation and control of works to
historic buildings
Understanding
a historic building is the first step towards decisions about
management, repair and alteration. By identifying architectural,
historic and archaeological interest, the analysis of fabric
and structure contributes to successful conservation, which
carefully balances the significance of the building, the owner's
requirements and appropriate techniques. This document focuses
upon requirements for the 'control of works', when local government
becomes formally involved with proposals for development.
At this stage conservation officers have to consider whether
an application contains sufficient information to be determined,
and guidance is needed in what local authorities ought to
expect and how it can be obtained.
