Impacts on the historical environment

The completed scheme will reduce flood risk to various sites of historical interest including Listed Buildings within the city of Salisbury. The scheme will benefit the historical environment through improved views, landscaping and by enabling future phases of the wider Masterplan, which have the potential to further conserve and enhance heritage assets within the city.

During construction, there will be some negative impacts on the settings of Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas due to tree removal and from in-channel modifications including changes to water flow within the Mill Stream and River Avon. These impacts will be managed through sensitive design of the scheme and associated landscaping.
