Frequently asked heritage questions This page provides advice to CLA members on heritage issues and problems. Before using this FAQ page, you should probably look at one or both of two detailed CLA Guidance notes which should answer most heritage questions, available here, or from the Professional advice page of the CLA website, under Guidance notes, Show all, Heritage:
These are updated as appropriate. This FAQ page focuses on other questions, but of course there is a degree of overlap with these Guidance notes. If you are a CLA member and your question is not answered by the Guidance notes or here, or you need further assistance, we will be happy to help further: please speak to your regional surveyor first. For listed buildings, you can also consult the more detailed information on listed building legislation in CLA Advisory Handbook CLA34, The Law of Listed Buildings (this is now slightly out of date, and parts are likely to be superseded in 2013-14 by changes in the Enterprise & Regulatory Reform Bill). In all cases you should also take site-specific professional advice. This page was last updated (not necessarily comprehensively) in February 2013. Return to CLA heritage homepage.

The Advisory Services are made available to members on the basis that members' rights to compensation and the liability (if any) of CLA and its officers and/or its staff advisers, are restricted in the following ways. In the event of any advice given by any CLA staff adviser being given negligently or otherwise being incorrect no liability whatsoever is accepted by the CLA or its officers or by its staff advisers concerned
(a) towards any person who is not the current CLA member to whom the advice was directly given,
(b) to any person in the respect of consequential loss or loss of profits, or
(c) to any person for any sum exceeding £50,000 in respect of any one enquiry (whether made or responded to orally or in writing and whether dealt with at one time or over a period of time).
Any person making use of the Advisory Services accepts such restrictions. Members should refer to appropriate professional advisers in private practice before taking any particular course of action potentially or actually involving any substantial amounts of money.
Please note that whilst the advisers are able to advise on a wide range of subjects relating to land ownership, they cannot act in place of a member's own solicitor, accountant, surveyor and tax specialist by, for example, drafting documents or corresponding on their behalf and may be precluded, by the rules of their own professions, from advising one CLA member against another CLA member in the case of conflict.
