Some cultural heritage interests will
require a mix of interventions to secure
their long term future. An example is the
extensive restoration and rebuild of the
Royal Station in Ballater following
extensive fire damage in 20151, which

must be compatible with the historic
context, not overwhelm or impose on it.
They must be planned with a thorough
understanding of the historic context and
provide a reasoned justification for their
need.
In advance of any works, evaluation and
recording of the existing structure should
take place. Where necessary, this analysis
should be carried out by a suitably qualified
specialist. This allows changes or
developments to be informed by the
original structure, while ensuring that
nothing of importance to the cultural
heritage of the structure or feature will
inadvertently be damaged or destroyed.
