Setting of a heritage asset
The London Plan, published by the Mayor of London in March 2016, suggests that the setting of a heritage asset is: ‘…the surrounding in which a heritage asset is experienced. Its extent is not fixed and may change as the asset and its surroundings evolve. Elements of a setting may make a positive or negative contribution to the significance of an asset, may affect the ability to appreciate that significance or may be neutral.’
