Consultation on Georgian and Victorian terraced housing

Editor News

Following requests for a more up to date replacement for the English Heritage document “London Terraced Housing 1660 – 1860”, this guide intends to provide a concise overview of the development of terraced housing and an approach to change in these historic buildings. It is for local authorities, owners and others involved in the conservation of Georgian and Victorian terraced housing. It gives a historic overview of terraced housing and identifies important features of different types of terrace.

The consultation is seeking comments on the draft text and also suggestions for important issues to cover for proposed future guidance specifically aimed at owners of terraced housing. It is open until 22 March at: https://historicengland.org.uk/about/what-we-do/consultations/guidance-open-for-consultation/.
