What other aspects are there to conservation work outside of the planning system?
Many archaeological sites lie derelict and underused. Many suffer unduly as people do not realise their value. Wherever possible we work with landowners to preserve these forgotten monuments in the most appropriate ways possible. Through schemes such as Countryside Stewardship landowners can receive grant payments for protecting or repairing damaged archaeological remains. A step further is to provide interpretive information on sites such as display panels, guided walks or leaflets. You can read about our work on Middlesbrough’s Ironmasters District elsewhere on this web-site. We are happy to assist local landowners and grant giving bodies in facilitating such schemes.
