Historic Environment Records
Historic Environment Records (HERs) are organized databases that document archaeological and historical sites, structures, and artifacts within a specific area. They help preserve and manage knowledge about the past, guiding planners, researchers, and the public. By recording details like location, significance, and condition of historical features, HERs support heritage conservation, archaeological research, and informed development, ensuring that the history and cultural identity of an area are recognized and protected for future generations.
