contribution to the significance of an asset, may affect the ability to appreciate that significance or may be neutral.’
19.
The assessment was carried out in accordance with The Setting of Heritage Assets – English Heritage Guidance (English Heritage 2011a) and Seeing History in the View (English Heritage 2011b). The above guidance states that ‘setting embraces all of the surroundings (land, sea, structures, features and skyline) from which the heritage asset can be experienced or that can be experienced from or with the asset’ (English Heritage 2011a).
1.2.7.2 Viewshed Analysis 20.
In addition to the 500m Study Area, Additionally, a Zone of Theoretical Visibility (ZTV) was created within a 4km radius from the converter station location (extended to 10km for all Registered Parks and Gardens), within which designated heritage assets of highest significance were identified.
21. All designated heritage asset within the 500m Study Area were included in the Viewshed Analysis. In addition, the settings of non-designated heritage assets, including Historic Landscape Character and locally listed buildings, were considered.
1.2.8 Assessment Criteria 22. Assessment of the significance of a site sets out to identify how particular parts of a place and different periods in its evolution contribute to, or detract from, identified heritage values associated with the site. This approach considers the present character of the site based on the chronological sequence of events that produced it, and allows management strategies to be developed that sustain and enhance the significance of heritage assets.
23. Significance (for heritage policy) is defined in NPPF Annex 2 as:
‘the value of a heritage asset to this and future generations because of its heritage interest. That interest may be archaeological, architectural, artistic or historic. Significance derives not only from a heritage asset’s physical presence, but also from its setting.’
24. NPPF requires the level of the assessment to be proportionate to the significance of the asset (NPPF Para. 128). However, there is no single accepted guidance for the assigning of different levels of the overall significance to heritage assets. As a result, based on professional judgement and available guidance, the following criteria were developed in order to determine the significance of heritage assets (Table 25.3).
