Landscape conservation design
Bradley’s Head Fort area at Sydney Harbour, a historically significant site.
At this event, three speakers will explore the nature of Australian and English landscapes, as well as the heritage issues and tools that are specific to working with and conserving historic landscapes.
The speakers will discuss case studies for a deeper understanding of place and significance. They will also compare landscape conservation in the UK to that in Australia to provide useful contrasts and stimulate ideas.
The speakers are as follows:
