HFF publish Social and Economic Benefits of Marine and Maritime Cultural Heritage by Dr Antony Firth 2015

The importance of our heritage and its relevance both to our society and to our economy is becoming increasingly recognised. Whether in our towns and cities or in rural landscapes, the character of places draws upon the past, stimulating interest and enjoyment amongst those who live there, and attracting visitors from both near and far.

We seem to have lost sight, however, of just how much of our present has been shaped by our age-old relationship with the sea. The UK is surrounded by the sea. It has been fundamental to communication, to our resources, to trade and to culture for millennia.
