A heritage statement goes with an application for listed building consent, or a certificate of lawfulness of proposed works. It explains what makes the building special and why your works are acceptable, so the conservation officer can say yes.
When you need one
Any work to a listed building, or to an outbuilding, wall or other structure in its grounds: repairs, alterations, extensions. A new building in the grounds needs a heritage impact statement instead.
