Building Preservation & Conservation Advice

There are over 2000 statutory listed buildings in the borough and many more locally important buildings spread throughout Test Valley. We are committed to ensuring the upkeep of these buildings and provide advice on repairs and maintenance to preserve the traditional style. We do not currently provide financial assistance for such works.

Conservation Advice

Our in-house expertise primarily engaged in tasks related to planning applications and formulating planning policy. The ability to provide a general advice service is therefore limited.

 

We have produced a guidance note to assist those who are responsible for looking after war memorials.  An information leaflet can be found on this page. 

Hampshire County Council have produced several useful documents in relation to the historic environment.  These include documents on Earth Structures , the Conservation of Water Meadow Structures, Thatch in Hampshire, Re-pointing and Historic Farm Buildings in Hampshire.  Please click here to view the County Council's website.
