CgMs PPS5 seminar
On Wednesday 9th June, CgMs Consulting, in association with the chambers of 2-3 Gray's Inn Square, jointly held a breakfast briefing on PPS5 - "Planning for the Historic Environment" - published in March 2010 - and how this new guidance will affect property owners, investors and occupiers.
The briefing was well attended with an audience of around 60 people from a diverse range of property interests to hear Paul Chadwick – Director of Archaeology, CgMs , Tom Cosgrove – Barrister, 2-3 Gray’s Inn Square, Nick Doggett – Director, Historic Buildings, CgMs and Morag Ellis QC – Barrister, 2-3 Gray’s Inn Square, explain the changes over previous guidance and the implications of the new PPS, that is now arranged as a series of development plan and development management policies.
It is still early days for the implementation of the new guidance in future planning decisions and appeals - it will be interesting to see how Councils and Inspectors deal with the issues in their decisions, particularly in respect of non-designated heritage assets.
