Conservation Management Plans (CMP)

A detailed document which sets out to look at the significance of a heritage asset from a number of different aspects, and to formulate a management strategy to ensure that this significance is protected into the future. Often submitted as part of a Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) bid it generally involves a multi-disciplinary team including archaeologists, historians, ecologists, landscape architects and regeneration consultants.  Archaeo-Environment can provide well respected staff in all these areas. The project is usually undertaken in four stages:

1. a study of the various aspects of the site in order to determine why it is of significance
2. an assessment of that significance
3. any existing or future factors which might affect that significance
4. management policies to ensure the preservation of significance into the future
