Abstract

This report presents the aims, principles, method and results of a pilot project to develop an approach that utilises Historic Landscape Characterisation (see below, section 2) as a systematic representation of the whole of the country’s historic environment when assessing how heritage can be ‘part of the solution’ to the climate change challenge. If the patterns of historic landscape and land use are regarded as part of the country’s inherited infrastructure then it also explores how elements of this could be reused and adapted in national, regional, and local responses to climate change, including when addressing the threats and effects of flooding, and when considering reversing the biodiversity crisis (for a summary of which see Lawton 2021).
