Historic England have published guidance for building recording in the form of a guide called "A Guide to Good Recording Practice" (available here).

​

Currently, most building recording is entirely focused upon recording the building via photographic and written methods which record the physical built form and functional elements of the design.

​

The fundamental purpose of Building Recording is to promote the understanding and appreciation of historic buildings, therefore we believe recording the social history of the building and its role in the community is also vitally important.

​

By recording the stories of people who have a connection to the building in their own voice, we can help to preserve a richer history of the building and the people who worked or enjoyed it.
