About Us

Historic Buildings & Places champions historic buildings and places of all ages and all types and works to provide a sustainable future for them. We are also a National Amenity Society and as such we have a role as a Consultee on Listed Building Consent applications. Our organisation was previously known as the Ancient Monuments Society until October 2021 when we adopted Historic Buildings & Places as our working title.

Future Lab

We are embarking on Future Lab, a three-year collaborative initiative developed in partnership with Heritage Innovations Laboratory Oxford (HILO), exploring how we can respond to the changing needs of the historic environment and strengthen our impact through research, collaboration and innovation. It brings together expertise from across heritage practice, research and policy to test new ideas and approaches.
