Heritage Character Assessment
The Heritage Character Assessment gives a broad overview of the wide range of heritage assets across the whole district (designated and non-designated), where they are and how they are unique to the area.
The assessment should be used to provide an evidence base for making informed and balanced decisions on whether future development sites will have an impact (negative or positive) on our special historical features and the potential for enhancing and protecting these assets.
The assessment does not attempt to cover each and every heritage asset within the district but seeks to identify and capture a flavour of the general history and characteristics which make this the Forest of Dean so special.
