This section deals with Conservation of the built environment in its widest sense, as part of the Planning Service. Conservation in the context of Natural Heritage, Archaeology, and the Museum service can be found elsewhere.

The next page ‘Buildings and Areas’ gives a general introduction to the subject and also provides details of designated Conservation areas, grant schemes, and listed buildings in the Outer Hebrides.
