WS Planning & Architecture have acted on behalf of a wide range of denominations and faiths. Many recent projects have centred on renewable energy for places of worship to combat rising energy costs and help to meet environmental goals. We have also covered a variety of projects ranging from planning and heritage advice, extensions, changes of use and new church buildings.
Working alongside WS Heritage we are well placed to advise on historic places of worship that fall within Conservation Areas or those that are Listed Buildings or on the List of Historic Buildings in a certain area. We can provide essential advice from the outset of your project to ensure compliance with the necessary planning policies. We can also set up Public Consultations as part of the planning process to support larger planning applications.

Our Heritage team provide the necessary early advice that can be so crucial in Heritage cases and also undertake Heritage Impact Assessments, Townscape & Character Appraisals, Historic Building Records and Archaeological Building Recording.
