Managing Change in the Historic Environment: Historic Battlefields

This document is part of a series of non-statutory guidance notes about managing change in the historic environment. They explain how to apply the policies in the Historic Environment Policy for Scotland.

This guidance note provides advice for planning authorities, public bodies and others involved in planning land management activities. It should be used when considering the impact of proposed development on sites appearing in the Inventory of Historic Battlefields.

We regularly review and update our policy advice and guidance. When we propose any changes, we hold public consultations to ensure your opinions can help to shape the guidance we provide. Find out more about our current consultations.
