Protecting heritage through specialist surveys, thoughtful design and careful restoration.
We offer extensive expertise in historic buildings, combining practical knowledge with an innovative approach to conservation. Our experience covers listed buildings and those within conservation areas, where we have built strong working relationships with conservation authorities across multiple regions. Every project is approached with sensitivity, ensuring that the building’s character is respected while its function is enhanced.

Listed Building Consent
We guide clients through the Listed Building Consent process, ensuring all proposals comply with legislation and conservation requirements. From preparing applications to liaising with conservation authorities, we help secure approvals efficiently while protecting the character and significance of historic buildings, enabling sensitive adaptations and upgrades that respect heritage values.
Historic Building Surveys
Our team carries out detailed historic building surveys, assessing condition, structure, and architectural significance. Using advanced survey techniques, we identify risks, defects, and opportunities for repair or adaptation. These surveys provide the foundation for informed decision-making, enabling effective conservation strategies and ensuring buildings are safe, functional, and preserved for future generations.
Design of Historic Buildings
We specialise in the design of historic buildings, balancing preservation with modern functionality. Our approach respects original architectural features while incorporating sustainable, energy-efficient solutions where appropriate. Each design is tailored to client requirements, ensuring buildings are adapted sensitively to contemporary use without compromising their heritage and aesthetic value.
Project Management of Historic Buildings
Our project management services ensure historic building works are delivered safely, efficiently, and on time. We coordinate contractors, consultants, and stakeholders, manage budgets, and monitor quality and compliance throughout construction. This structured approach minimises risk, protects heritage features, and delivers projects that meet client expectations and conservation requirements.
Heritage Funding Support
We support clients in securing heritage funding, providing expert advice on grant applications, compliance, and project justification. Our team identifies suitable funding streams and develops compelling proposals, helping to unlock resources for conservation, repair, and adaptive reuse projects, ensuring historic buildings receive the investment required to protect and sustain them for the future.

The completed building is central to the University’s strategic aim to personalise the student educational experience and to act as an anchor institution underpinning and adding to the culture of the City and region. The opening of the original hall in July was very well received by the University and City authorities, students and their guests.
