Creation of a verified data layer of English historic parklands

Description

A reliable England-wide data set of the location and, importantly, extent of historic designed landscape (parklands) alongside key attributes is needed to support landowners and managers in future agri-environment schemes. Whilst the location of many of these sites is known, principally through designation and local records - there are many that are unknown or their extent not fully defined. This project seeks to plug this gap. This is a data enhancement project. It will require an understanding of historic parklands and designed landscapes as well as a GI specialism. The project aims to run for eight months, with an indicative start date of 01 July 2024 and an end date of 28 February 2025. Additional information: NOTE: A small subset of the existing NE Historic Parkland layer (ArcGIS layer package (.lpkx)) is available to be shared but cannot be uploaded as attachment to the website in .lpkx file format so please use the contact details to request a copy.
