Meet Stacey Weiser
Hi,
I am Stacey, Director and Founder of Weiser Heritage Consultancy. This business is the culmination of many years of experience in the field of historic building conservation as well as using my previous skills in interior architecture and design.
​
I work with clients on a range of different projects, helping them ensure that any change is carefully considered, offering a pragmatic approach to ensure the least harmful outcome.
Whether your property is commercial or residential, medieval or Victorian, I have the experience and knowledge to enable you to make informed decisions. You may need general advice when putting together a listed building application, or you may need a heritage expert to manage your team and project.
Whatever your requirements, I provide a professional service that advocates for both the clients and the building in question.

Heritage Consultancy Services
Drawing on my professional training and hands-on experience, I offer a suite of heritage consultancy services designed to cater to the demands of a wide range of projects.
Heritage Assessments and Reports
Heritage Statements
These comprehensive, detailed reports assess the history and evolution of your property and site against the proposal to ensure the balance between harm and benefit are met.
Significance Assessments
These assessments reveal the significance and value of your heritage asset, in relation to its character and setting. They can be used to inform proposals and ensure the existing historic fabric is preserved and enhanced.

Heritage Impact Assessments
These reports assess any heritage assets located adjacent to a proposal site. If you project is in a conservation area or adjacent to heritage assets, such as listed buildings, this information is used to inform the proposal, in light of any potential harm to the asset's setting or charactera.

The Process
Initial Consultation
Every project begins with a phone call or email. During our initial conversation, I’ll gain an understanding of your vision and assess the feasibility of your project. I’ll take notes, and then we’ll schedule a site visit.
​
Site Visit and Assessment
There’s only so much information I can gather from a phone call or email. A site visit allows me to thoroughly evaluate the property, discuss your proposals, and identify opportunities or concerns.
​
Research and Reporting
I begin my research phase by conducting an in-depth analysis, assessing historical context, planning history, and significance assessments. I can then create a detailed report that builds a strong narrative supporting your proposal.
​
Service Provision
Once I’ve obtained all the information I need, I can get to work helping you to achieve your goals – whatever they may be. Whether it’s a planning application, an impact assessment, or a building materials audit, I’ll adopt a detail-orientated approach to fulfil your brief.
​
Project Support
Throughout the project, I’ll provide ongoing advice and guidance, reviewing architectural drawings, offering design recommendations, and ensuring compliance with heritage policies.
