Surely "joe the Conservation Officer" is a heritage professional - or at least should be :face-stir:. And perhaps, now that the PPS says that even Listed Building casework (!) should be informed by a professional assessment of evidence and significance, end up with mitigation recording where neccesary, and that all the resultant records and reports ultimately destined for the HER, just perhaps there ought to be some involvement for involving Conservation Officers in the management and curation of the HER :0. Heres a whole can of worms.....
