The Future of English Heritage


The Government has formally approved the restructuring of English Heritage into two organisations.  A new charity keeping the name English Heritage will run the collection of historic properties and a new body to be called Historic England will champion the wider historic environment and provide support for stakeholders in the heritage sector.

Full details of the Government announcement can be seen here and the English Heritage response here.

Civic Voice has welcomed the Government announcement and the decision to invest £90 million in the National Heritage Collection of 420 historic sites, monuments and collections.
