Your Heritage
It planned to focus on raising awareness of the significance and vulnerability of the built environment and enabled members of the local community to learn about architectural importance, vulnerability and the challenges faced by the historic environment.
The project’s focus was to create the most complete building-by-building snapshot survey of the level of ‘need’ present in the city centre. The survey was to be carried out by volunteers from the local community, who would be trained to carry out individual building assessment using a survey form, sketch plans and photographs.
Project plans also included creating an online toolkit of resources, including a ‘traffic light’ style system for flagging levels of need, to enable people to engage on a local level with the management of built heritage in Peterborough.
