From the notice
This project seeks to develop an initial evidence base formed of a series of case studies to inform updated guidance on the sensitive integration of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) within the historic environment. It will examine how SuDS can support climate adaptation, water management, biodiversity enhancement and nature recovery while safeguarding heritage significance, and will identify best practice, case studies, decision-making frameworks, policy considerations, and implementation challenges across a range of historic contexts and stakeholder groups.
