Research to Support the Implementation of the European Landscape Convention in England

The ratification of the European Landscape Convention (ELC) by the UK in November 2006 has encouraged various initiatives based on a need to examine how the ELC is being or should be implemented. This report has been prepared by an interdisciplinary team of researchers in the Universities of Newcastle and Manchester following a project that ran from November 2007 to March 2008, commissioned by Natural England, set up in support of the implementation of the ELC.
