Developing the ruins of the past: cultural heritage preservation and urban regeneration of a historical site in the United Kingdom
Developing the ruins of the past: cultural heritage preservation and urban regeneration of a historical site in the United Kingdom
The overarching aim of this study is to investigate urban regeneration methods to revive historical ruins in the United Kingdom through a case study approach, preserving cultural heritage whilst balancing economic and social development. Winchester was chosen as the case study location due to its historical and cultural significance. The research approach involved theoretical and empirical methods, considering, social, economic, historical, cultural, and environmental aspects in addition to the built environment. Site visits, observational studies and a local stakeholder listening exercise were all conducted as part of the research design process. The study identified areas for potential regeneration within the case study, emphasising the need to improve the connection between Winchester High Street and Cathedral. The proposed interventions aimed to positively impact the area through creating more dynamic social spaces, enhancing visitor movement and duration of stay while preserving cultural heritage.

Abstract
The overarching aim of this study is to investigate urban regeneration methods to revive historical ruins in the United Kingdom through a case study approach, preserving cultural heritage whilst balancing economic and social development. Winchester was chosen as the case study location due to its historical and cultural significance. The research approach involved theoretical and empirical methods, considering, social, economic, historical, cultural, and environmental aspects in addition to the built environment. Site visits, observational studies and a local stakeholder listening exercise were all conducted as part of the research design process. The study identified areas for potential regeneration within the case study, emphasising the need to improve the connection between Winchester High Street and Cathedral. The proposed interventions aimed to positively impact the area through creating more dynamic social spaces, enhancing visitor movement and duration of stay while preserving cultural heritage.
