Description

The enabling works are under way and construction works are due to start this year. What have been the key heritage considerations? How are the decisions being made and who’s doing the work? What are the various roles of heritage professionals in a large-scale infrastructure project such as HS2? Have they found anything yet? What lessons have been learned?

Answers to these questions and more from those involved at both strategic and project levels in the private and public sectors – HS2, Historic England, Camden Council and MOLA Headland.
