Former Liverpool Courthouse Conservation Management Plan
HERITAGE MANAGEMENT OF A FORMER COURTHOUSE
Client: Liverpool Council
The Project
Extent Heritage was commissioned to prepare a conservation management plan (CMP) for the Former Liverpool Courthouse, in response to planned restoration work and future adaptive reuse of the site. The aim of the project was to provide the necessary framework and guidance to conserve, maintain and use the site in a manner that is sympathetic to the significance of the site and allows Council to better plan long-term conservation and maintenance requirements.
Our Role
Extent Heritage led the preparation of the CMP, bringing expertise from two disciplines to prepare a CMP that covers the built heritage and historical archaeological values of the place. Utilising its in-house architects, Extent Heritage also prepared documentation to assist with the ongoing management of the place, such as a cyclical maintenance plan.
Value Unlocked
Extent Heritage was able to build on an understanding of the state heritage values of the place, including its historical archaeological potential, to prepare a robust management document that provides an industry best-practice heritage management framework that will guide the house and its operations over the next 10 years.
