IHBC SE Branch CPD Event

No longer just hot air: Updates in climate change policy, retrofit and renewable energy

Friday 1st November 2024: 09.00 - 17.00

No longer just hot air: Updates in climate change policy, retrofit and renewable energy - IHBC SE Branch CPD event image

Historic, traditionally constructed buildings present amazing opportunities to reduce energy use and take advantage of their low embodied carbon. But these buildings can be vulnerable to inappropriate retrofit measures. In the worst cases these can lead to the deterioration of the building’s structure and fabric, increasing heat loss through damp, mould and decay.

This invaluable and timely training course highlights the issues and covers the most recent government and Historic England guidance, including the new editions of PAS 2030 and PAS 2035, which give updated guidance for traditional and protected buildings

Cost, including the buffet lunch: £40 IHBC members and £50 for non-members, £15 to IHBC Students/Unwaged. Bookings can be made via TicketSource.

Joining instructions will be issued nearer the date and CPD certificates can be provided on request.

Heritage Partnership Agreements - The Rochester Pilot Study

The South East branch organised a conference about the new Heritage Partnership Agreements on 17th October 2007. Rochester cathedral is a pilot study for these new partnerships and the opportunity was taken to explore what is involved and how they will work. Peter Kendall’s Powerpoint presentation to the conference is accessible by clicking here? (opens in new window)

The proposed Heritage Protection Reforms include a new type of “Heritage Partnership Agreement” between owners, managers, Councils and English Heritage that will cut time-consuming consent administration and encourage strategic management of large sites.Owners of sites such as large estates, which have many similar assets under single management, will be able to avoid the need for multiple consent applications.
English Heritage will help negotiate single consent agreements for sites that stretch across many local authority boundaries, such as stations on underground lines.

Consent can be provided in advance for a large number of agreed works on complex sites such as university campuses and housing estates. Owners of archaeological sites under cultivation would be able to take part in a management agreement allowing them to be able to work protected land.

There has been an increasing appreciation in the heritage sector of the potential of management agreements that set out guidelines for the management of a historic site or monument over a given period. The forerunner of these is the agreement brokered in 1993 by Ipswich Borough Council, in conjunction with English Heritage, for the Willis Corroon building in Ipswich. There have been others since, notably a recent agreement for the Barbican in London. For the archaeological environment, management agreements are well established.

The government was not breaking entirely new ground, therefore, when it set out in The Way Forward the view that in future ‘statutory management agreements could be employed wherever that approach would work better than the system of individual specific consents’. To test the proposals set out in The Way Forward the government asked English Heritage to undertake a number of pilot studies. The pilot studies include both Rochester Cathedral and Canterbury Cathedral. These began in 2003 and where appropriate have explored the potential of statutory management agreements – currently named Heritage Partnership Agreements (HPAs).
