Measured and Drawn: Techniques and practice for the metric survey of
historic buildings
David Andrews, Bill Blake, Tom Cromwell, Richard Lea and Sarah Lunnon
The metric survey of our historic environment is a crucial part of our
understanding. Mapping the historic estate means that it can be conserved,
managed and enjoyed. This book gives an introduction to the metric survey
techniques currently available to conservation professionals and building
archaeologists. It examines control, detail and procurement, and concludes
with case studies of metric survey projects undertaken on historic buildings
and structures ranging from Battle Abbey courthouse to the nave ceiling at
Peterborough Cathedral.
Measured and Drawn is prepared in sequence with The Presentation of Historic
Building Survey in CAD (English Heritage 1999) and Metric Survey
Specifications for English Heritage (English Heritage 2000; reprint 2003) as
part of a series of technical guides for heritage recording.
