Testimonials
“We have had the pleasure of working with Beth on several conservation and listed building projects and have found her expertise, knowledge and professional approach to be invaluable.”
“Having instructed Beth on a number of occasions now, we know the quality and efficacy of the work we will receive. Beth is a passionate advocate of the historic environment and is capable of valuing both preservation and enhancement of assets allowing for their conservation and evolution where appropriate. A professional yet friendly and welcoming persona, she is always a pleasure to work with.”
“We have worked with Beth successfully on a number of complex heritage projects. The knowledge and understanding of the historic environment that Beth brings to projects adds great value to both the design process and negotiations with local authority conservation / heritage officers.
We would highly commend Yorkshire Heritage Consultants and look forward to working on projects together in the future.”
“I cannot thank Beth enough for her help. I had been refused planning permission to upgrade 2 grade II listed cottages. Beth produced Heritage Impact Assessments for both properties which led to my planning re-application being successful. ”
“Yorkshire Heritage Consultants Director, Beth Davies, produced a Heritage Impact Assessment for a major residential scheme of up to 126 dwellings in Mid Suffolk and appeared as an expert witness on Heritage matters at a recent Public Inquiry coordinated by AAH Planning Consultants on behalf of Future Habitats Ltd. The Proof of Evidence, Rebuttal of the Councils case and appearance as an expert witness resulted in the Inspector concluding no heritage harm. We would recommend Beth as an Expert Witness and for Heritage Impact Assessments. We look forward to working with Yorkshire Heritage Consultants again on our future projects.”
“Beth Davies produced a Heritage Impact Assessment for our Grade II listed Georgian Farmhouse when we applied for planning permission. She was very professional and thorough, producing a useful and detailed document that helped support our application and amend some of the modifications that were initially asked for by the council. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”
“I have worked with Beth in both her capacity as Conservation officer for the North York Moors National Park, and subsequently as an independent heritage consultant. In all my dealings with her, I have been impressed by her deep understanding of the building and the historic environment. I value her informed advice, and she is an indispensable part of the design team.”
