• RPS and NIAH Records
• Details of the Conservation Principles and Charters the report is based upon
• Summary of Proposals
• Details on the proposals with regards to the appropriate conservation interventions in relation to the Conservation Principles and Charters; this includes:
– Walls
– Floors
– Roofs
– Windows

– Increasing thermal performance
– Plumbing
– Mechanical & Electrical
– Works within the curtilage of the site
– Part M
• Assessment and Conclusion
