Overview

This historic environment matters to us all. The Historic Environment Policy for Scotland (HEPS) supports good decision making for Scotland's unique places. 

We collectively have a duty of care for our historic environment. This Policy outlines how we should undertake this duty whenever a decision will affect Scotland's historic environment.

HEPS may impact on the work you do. Guidance around the new policy, including a webinar and answers to frequently asked questions are available on our Youtube channel.
