What's New

  • English Heritage has now launched the Historic Enivironment Traineeship (HET) Scheme. The first Trainees started work with English Heritage in October 2008 and have been placed within our regional teams across the country. They will gain experience in the application of professional conservation management skills in a planning and development context.
  • English Heritage, which launched the Save our Streets campaign in 2004, has now published the best “how to” examples from around the country in ten Streets for All: Practical Case Studies. These showcase examples of councils who have taken the initiative to deal with a particular aspect of street clutter.
