Historic Environment Record

A Historic Environment Record (HER) is a comprehensive database that documents archaeological sites, historical buildings, and landscapes of interest within a specific area. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, developers, and the public, providing information on the significance and condition of these heritage assets. HERs help in planning decisions and conservation efforts by ensuring that important historical and cultural sites are recognized and protected. They promote a better understanding of the past and encourage responsible engagement with our shared history.
