#48 The Basics: Heritage

What makes something worth keeping, and who gets to decide?

In this episode of our The Basics Series, Gunnar and Hammond talk with heritage specialist Dr MacLaren North.

They cover what heritage actually means, the differences between built, archaeological and Aboriginal cultural heritage, how heritage significance is assessed, and why the process can sometimes be surprisingly subjective.

They also look at how heritage considerations affect development, why getting specialist advice early matters, and whether an old building is genuinely significant or simply in need of maintenance.

A practical and surprisingly entertaining introduction to the world of heritage.
