The ALSF scheme has enabled English Heritage to support a range of timely initiatives, providing new insights into mitigation, assessment, evaluation and potential of the marine historic environment through remote survey and field investigation in English Territorial Waters. The relevance of the ALSF scheme is highlighted through the wide variety of projects being undertaken and a demonstration of how these are directly reducing the impact of aggregate extraction on the historic environment.
An example of this is England's Historic Seascapes, a programme of projects funded through the ALSF to develop a nationally-applicable method for assessing and mapping the historic character of our present coastal and marine environment: Historic Seascape Characterisation (HSC).
