The JESSOP Consultancy aims to offer professional and independent advice relating to historic buildings, heritage structures and designed landscapes. Our approach seeks to understand the significance of the fabric of a building, or the individual components of a site, garden, or landscape to enable informed decisions regarding their future to be made.

Each project is unique, and we take time at the start of each phase of work to ensure that a tailor-made approach is devised and developed. We regularly work with independent specialist consultants to form project teams with the appropriate range of skills and experience for each project.

Given the importance of the historic environment anyone engaged in its development or restoration is likely to encounter issues arising from Listed Building Consent, the setting of designated heritage assets, or the complexities of the planning process. The JESSOP Consultancy’s broad ranging expertise enables us to provide strategies and services at both pre-planning and post-consent stages.
