We have an extensive collective expertise in the research and analysis of buildings at risk, or whose useful life is under threat. We provide expertise in understanding their fabric and context and how to regenerate the life of buildings. Lincoln Conservation can help to record and identify existing built cultural heritage and advise how to record and identify future value through a staged approach. Services may be commissioned to suit each unique building and client requirements.

Our approach incorporates:

Research into the history, fabric, and context of existing structures. We consider present and past connections between people and places and how this has influenced building function.
This provides the basis for Statements of Significance, and Heritage Impact Assessments, using original Timelines and Infographics, to communicate the unique circumstances of your building.
Feasibility Studies can suggest the potential revitalisation of places through a programme of phased interventions, illustrated by architectural drawings, interpretative drawings, and diagrams.
Where we identify compatible uses and Design Proposals we can prepare architectural and technical drawings and 3D digital modelling and reconstructions.
Where interventions require Local Authority Planning and Conservation Applications, we can provide advice and liaison with various audiences and preparation of appropriate documentation.

In all our work we employ a range of appropriate research methods. Research-engaged design allows us to make pragmatic yet beautiful conservation proposals.
