At Heritage Unlimited, we offer specialist planning objection services to assist homeowners and residents when a neighbour’s proposed development would affect a listed building or the character and appearance of a conservation area. Our consultants have extensive experience of the planning system and prepare clear, well-reasoned objections that are firmly based on national and local planning policies and statutory requirements, including the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.

For private residents whose own property is directly affected, we prepare tailored objection letters that set out the specific heritage impacts of the proposal, supported by an assessment of the building’s architectural or historic interest and the harm that would be caused.

Where the development has wider implications for the conservation area or local community, we produce detailed objection reports or representations. These documents enable individuals or community groups to submit coherent, policy-based objections that focus on statutory duties to preserve or enhance the area’s special interest.

We manage the entire process with care and professionalism, from reviewing the planning application and identifying relevant policies, through to drafting and submitting the objection. Our aim is to ensure your legitimate heritage concerns are properly considered by the local planning authority.
