6 THE BUILDING CONSERVATION DIRECTORY 2024 CATHEDRAL COMMUNICATIONS Foreword I’M DELIGHTED to have been given this opportunity to contribute to this year’s BCD. It is hard to believe that over thirty years have passed since its inception, but I remember very well how it started and have watched it develop with interest over the years. The IHBC prides itself in being the professional body of the United Kingdom representing conservation specialists and historic environment practitioners in the public and private sectors. The Institute exists to establish the highest standards of conservation practice, to support the effective protection and enhancement of the historic environment, and to promote heritage-led regeneration and access to the historic environment for all. I have been Chair of the IHBC since 2019 and have ensured that training and accreditation continue to be priorities for the Institute. Our key competencies for membership follow ICOMOS’s 1993 Education and Training Guidelines. These also underpin conservation accreditation in other built environment professions. Through our Education, Training and Standards Committee we strive to improve conservation practice throughout the historic environment sector. Standards are maintained by recognising appropriate conservation courses. We provide CPD courses covering needs identified by our members. We also work with other organisations such as Historic England in developing apprenticeships, recently moving from historic environment advice to craft skills. Accreditation across the sector is also high on our agenda. I am currently a member of a subgroup of the Historic Environment Forum which is examining ways of increasing the demand for accredited professionals in the sector. This is in contrast with more conventional studies which consider the supply of professional and craft skills. Supply is clearly a major concern at the present time in relation to climate change and the need to reduce energy use in buildings. The IHBC is not the only organisation concerned about the lack of understanding about the construction and requirements of traditional buildings. We continue our advocacy for accreditation and good practice in energy saving and retrofit in tandem with other organisations including the Sustainable Traditional Buildings Alliance (STBA). The BCD’s contribution to the use of appropriately skilled professionals and craftspeople should not be underestimated. I recall when the company was formed that a decision had to be made regarding whether inclusion in the directory should include some form of accreditation. It was concluded that that approach would not be feasible. This might have been a concern, but I have been impressed over the years by the BCD’s approach over the years in politely refusing to include the inclusion in the directory of those organisations whose conservation credentials might be lacking. The quality of the accompanying articles has always been consistently high and I am always pleasantly surprised to find that there is one that deals directly with an issue that I’m dealing with. Having been singing the praises of the BCD, it is with deep sadness that I should also record the recent passing away of co-founder of Cathedral Communications, Gordon Sorenson. Any publishing company requires a combination creativity and business acumen. Gordon was the business brain behind the company, but also a kind and sympathetic person to work with. As well as the BCD, Cathedral have been responsible for the IHBC’s Yearbook and quarterly journal, Context. Working with Gordon on these publications was always a pleasure and he will be sadly missed by all at the IHBC. David McDonald Chair, Institute of Historic Building Conservation

11 CATHEDRAL COMMUNICATIONS THE BUILDING CONSERVATION DIRECTORY 2024 PROFESSIONAL SERVICES 1 LISTED BUILDINGS PROTECTION JONATHAN TAYLOR LISTS OF buildings of ‘special architectural or historic interest’ are maintained by each of the four home nations. These ‘listed’ buildings are graded according to a variety of factors such as rarity and completeness, with grades I and category A being the most important, but all listed buildings are equally protected by the need for consent, whatever the grade/category, inside and out. It is a criminal offence to materially alter, extend or demolish one without listed building consent (LBC). Applications for listed building consent are made to the local planning authority who will then consult the national statutory body on applications for LBC involving demolition. Where alterations are proposed, Historic England and Cadw are only consulted on proposals to alter Grades I and II* listed buildings in England and Wales, and Historic Environment Scotland is only consulted on categories A and B. In Northern Ireland the Historic Environment Division of the Department for Communities is consulted on all applications affecting listed buildings. Buildings of a lower grade or category than those in the table above have no statutory protection, although local planning building of special architectural or historic interest’. The criterion for assessing the proposal is ‘the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses’. APPLYING FOR LISTED BUILDING CONSENT Like a planning application, an application for listed building consent would be required to include appropriately scaled drawings and photos showing the existing building and comparable drawings showing the proposals. In addition, the local planning authority may require statements outlining: • why the building or component affected is significant in heritage terms • how that significance will be affected by the proposal, and • how any harm caused to the significance of the building or component can be justified. This information is usually presented in a heritage statement. For a minor alteration this can be a relatively simple document, but it becomes more complicated where harm needs to be evaluated and justified. Historic Environment Scotland in its Managing Change guidance on extensions points out that “most historic buildings can sustain some degree of sensitive alteration or extension to accommodate continuing or new uses. Yet historic buildings vary in the extent to which they can accommodate change without loss to special interest. Some present the opportunity to promote design intervention that would not have been possible without the historic building as a creative spark. Others are sensitive even to slight alterations.” Harm can often be mitigated by making the alterations reversible. New components such as partitions must be cut around the existing fabric rather than cutting into the original components, and all interventions should always be kept to the minimum. WORKS NOT REQUIRING LISTED BUILDING CONSENT Like-for-like repairs do not require consent provided they do not involve any alteration or demolition. This means using materials to match the existing materials (even if the existing materials were used inappropriately), and the repairs must be limited to the area that needs repairing. All works should be carefully documented with before and after photos and notes detailing what was done. However, most repairs will involve a degree of alteration, so to avoid any misunderstandings the local authority should be notified LISTED BUILDING GRADES / CATEGORIES (and proportions in each) STATUTORY AUTHORITY England Grade I (2.5%) Grade II* (5.5%) Grade II (92%) Historic England Wales Grade I (2%) Grade II* (6%) Grade II (92%) Cadw Scotland Category A (8%) Category B (50%) Category C (42%) Historic Environment Scotland Northern Ireland Grade A (2.5%) Grade B+ (6.5%) Grade B1/B2 (91%) Department for Communities, Historic Environment Division PRIMARY LEGISLATION GOVERNMENT POLICY AND GUIDANCE England Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 The National Planning Policy Framework Wales Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023* Planning Policy Wales, Technical Advice Note 24: The Historic Environment and associated best practice guidance, Managing Change to Listed Buildings in Wales Scotland Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 Historic Environment Policy for Scotland and the guidance notes in the Managing Change in the Historic Environment series Northern Ireland The Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 The Planning (General Development Procedure) Order (Northern Ireland) 2015 The Planning (Listed Buildings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015 Planning Policy Statement 6 (PPS6): Planning, Archaeology and the Built Heritage Criteria for the Scheduling of Historic Monuments and the Listing of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest, with associated procedures Strategic Planning Policy Statement (SPPS) 2015 *The Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023 is expected to come into force before the end of 2024 following the development of secondary legislation and the updating of guidance. In the meantime Wales shares with England the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. policy may seek to protect them through the control of development. These are called ‘locally listed’ buildings in England and ‘record only’ in Northern Ireland. Each of the UK’s four nations operates slightly different planning and heritage protection systems, but the fundamentals are the same, applying protection for historic buildings through primary legislation supplemented by government policy and guidance, as shown in the table below. These policies and guidance fall into the category of ‘material consideration’ which the local planning authority is required to take into account when considering proposals for listed building consent. Local government heritage protection policies which have been through public consultation will also be considered. These provide specific guidance tailored to suit, for example, the character and significance of a local area. The primary legislation enables buildings to be listed, makes it a criminal offence to alter one without LBC, and gives the criteria for granting LBC. So, all three acts state that LBC is required for ‘works for the demolition of a listed building or for its alteration or extension in any manner which would affect its character as a
12 THE BUILDING CONSERVATION DIRECTORY 2024 CATHEDRAL COMMUNICATIONS before the work commences. Likewise, works which would not affect the building’s ‘character as a building of special architectural or historic interest’ may also be carried out without listed building consent. Works in both the above categories can also inadvertently lead to incidental alterations, particularly where nonspecialist craftspeople are unsupervised. For all works to historic buildings it is essential to engage the services of professional consultants who specialise in the conservation of historic buildings, both to specify the works and to liaise with the local authority. ECCLESIASTICAL EXEMPTION Most churches in the UK are exempt from ordinary listed building consent requirements to some degree. In England and Wales the exemption is restricted under their respective ecclesiastical exemption orders (see table) to denominations with their own internal systems of control, on the basis that their systems are equal to or better than the consent procedures of local authorities. Standard listed building and conservation area controls apply to the places of all other denominations and faiths, including synagogues and mosques for example. In Scotland and Northern Ireland the exemption from listed building controls extends to all places of worship whether Christian or not. However, the majority of Christian denominations operate their own internal systems for reviewing and approving work. In Scotland most have also voluntarily agreed to seek listed building consent for external works including alterations and extensions, so here the exemption is generally limited to the interiors. Once made redundant the church ceases to be a place of worship, so ordinary listed building consent requirements apply. JONATHAN TAYLOR MSc, IHBC is the editor of The Building Conservation Directory. Careful, like-for-like repairs being carried out to an orangery by Treasure & Sons’ conservators: although listed building consent is not required for works of repair, the local authority should be kept informed of any significant work as misunderstandings can lead to criminal charges.
