HERs in England have been a source of information for the Countryside Stewardship Scheme, a grant scheme which was first piloted in 1991. It aims included the conservation of archaeological sites and historic features, by adapting land management practices. This scheme is now being replaced by a new agri-environment scheme, [Environmental Stewardship|Glossary#Environmental Stewardship|target='_blank'], with two tiers – the Entry Level Scheme (ELS) and the Higher Level Scheme (HLS). HERs supply information on the archaeology of the area, together with recommendations as to the optimum method of land management. Historic England is helping local authorities to employ Countryside Archaeological Advisors, whose role is to extract information from the HER and advise farmers and landowners on land management.

The Countryside Stewardship Scheme was replaced by [Environmental Stewardship|Glossary#Environmental Stewardship|target='_blank'] in 2004, comprising two tiers – Entry Level Stewardship (ELS) and Higher Level Stewardship (HLS). HERs supplied information on the archaeology of the area, together with recommendations as to the optimum method of land management for all the Higher Level Stewardship (HLS) schemes. English Heritage was able to help many local authorities employ Historic Environment Countryside Advisers to carry out this work.

In 2005, Natural England in partnership with English Heritage and ALGAO, created the Selected National Heritage Dataset ([SNHD|Glossary#SNHD|target='_blank']), comprising selected archaeological sites across England, as recorded in the [NMR|Glossary#NMRE|target='_blank'], together with datasets supplied from nine participating HERs. The data was used to pre-populate applicant's maps for the Entry Level Stewardship (ELS) schemes. Given the limited coverage and lack of consistency of the archaeological sites included, SNHD was replaced by SHINE in 2009. SHINE - the Selected Heritage Inventory for Natural England - is a single nationally consistent dataset of undesignated historic environment features from across England that could benefit from management within agri-environment schemes. With over 60,000 records created by HERs to date, SHINE provides a much more consistent and comprehensive dataset, and through Environmental Stewardship, has enabled farmers, land managers, and land owners to identify archaeological and historic sites that might be eligible for grant-aided management, and has focused advice on areas where management options could benefit the historic environment. Environmental Stewardship was closed to new applicants in 2014, although existing agreements will be managed until they reach their agreed end date.
The new [Countryside Stewardship |Glossary#Countryside Stewardship|target='_blank'] will replace [Environmental Stewardship|Glossary#Environmental Stewardship|target='_blank'] in summer 2015. The new scheme comprises Higher Tier (similar to HLS) and Mid Tier (similar to ELS). Countryside Stewardship is more targeted than previous schemes with a focus on biodiversity and water quality, but continues to encourage the protection and improvement of the historic environment. Targeting statements, informed by SHINE, are being used to identify the priority features and issues for the historic environment within each National Character Area (NCA).
