About us

The Field Monument Advisor liaises with monument owners and occupiers, local authorities, and other agencies on the condition of ancient monuments, advising them on appropriate management measures, including general advice on the relevant agri-environment schemes, and assisting in the preparation of management plans. The Advisor identifies priorities for management action by the relevant bodies and, as specifically directed by the local authority’s Heritage Officer and the Steering Group, recommends and negotiates management agreements, or providing advice in the context of relevant agri-environment schemes. He/She monitors and report on the progress of any works or management action affecting ancient monuments, and making urgent ad hoc inspections of ancient monuments.
