People-Centred Heritage

Extent Heritage is a firm that places people at the centre of heritage management. We specialise in built and urban heritage, archaeology, cultural and historic landscapes, Aboriginal cultural heritage, and storytelling through heritage interpretation.

We are set apart by the collective strengths of our people, our commitment to high quality, our connections with local communities, and our close engagement with clients to understand their needs and unlock value in their projects.

Our Queensland heritage consultants have expertise in the preparation of Aboriginal cultural heritage management plans (under the Queensland Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003), and archaeological survey, excavation and community engagement to assist proponents to meet their cultural heritage duty of care.

Our built heritage specialists make significance assessments, identify adaptive re-use options, prepare heritage impact assessments, and develop practical and effective conservation management plans for heritage places – many of which are listed on the Queensland Heritage Register.
