About Consent Application

Information in this record is about an application for Scheduled Monument Consent.

Most works, including repair, on scheduled monuments require Scheduled Monument Consent. We are responsible for determining applications for scheduled monument consent. Such applications will normally be determined within eight weeks of receipt of the application. We promote early pre-application discussions with prospective applicants. Contact Us for Application forms and further information.

Applications for Scheduled Monument Consent and the decisions taken on those applications are published on our online Portal. You can also view this information at our principal offices. Contact Us about this.

Where an application has been made to us but the person who made the application doesn't agree with the decision (or we haven't made a decision) they can appeal to Scottish Ministers.
