Heritage (or cultural) assets include archaeological remains, both above ground
and buried; historic buildings and sites ie
Listed buildings,
Cemeteries,
Parks,
Village greens,
Bridge and canals;
historic areas and landscapes;
other structures of architectural or historic merit.
Heritage assets can be affected by
aviation and airports several ways:
They can be razed or built over to make way for airport-related
development.
Their structure can be affected by vibrations from aircraft or road
traffic:
Their building materials can weather faster due to air pollution;
The vegetation of historic parks and landscapes can be harmed by air
pollution:
Their curtilage (the enclosed area of land surrounding a house) or
genial landscape setting can be eroded, so that one can no longer
view them in context
