ELG Heritage

The planning system is complex and development affecting the historic environment is a particular challenge, but not at ELG. We have vast experience of heritage projects, from new development within historic settings to alterations to Grade I listed buildings.

Our heritage team is led by Clare-Louise Booth who has significant experience working as a Conservation Officer within local authorities and understands the planning process from the decision maker’s perspective. She is also commercially minded, which gives ELG the edge when advising clients on what developments will be acceptable, reducing lengthy negotiations and saving clients money.

All of our Planners are members of the Royal Town Planning Institute and our heritage specialist is also a full member of the Institute of Historic Buildings & Conservation (IHBC).
