People and Places: Sustaining the Value of World Heritage Cultural Landscapes

The Garden History Society Winter Lectures Series
 
Wednesday 11 March, 6.30 pm
 
Susan Denyer, FSA, World Heritage Adviser, ICOMOS, & Secretary, ICOMOS-UK

Cultural landscapes reflect the interaction between people and their environment over time. Sustaining the distinctiveness of World Heritage cultural landscapes can mean sustaining not just the symptoms of interaction but the underlying processes that contribute towards their Outstanding Universal Value.  The Lecture will consider examples of World Heritage cultural landscapes from around the world and show how these sites could provide approaches that are relevant for other landscapes, both rural and urban, in the UK.
