Cornwall & Isles Of Scilly Historic Environment Record

The HER is the definitive archive for information on archaeological and historical sites within Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly, held by Cornwall Council.

The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Historic Environment Record (HER) is the comprehensive and definitive record of the historic environment of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, and includes information on all aspects of the past from the earliest traces of human occupation up to the present day
The HER is available to consult online via the Heritage Gateway. This is a nationwide service that provides access to local authority HERs across the UK, as well as the National Monuments Record Excavation Index, details of Scheduled Monuments, Listed Buildings and Registered Parks and Gardens.
We are part of the Kresen Kernow project (funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund) which will see us join with the Cornwall Record Office and Cornish Studies Library in Cornwall's brand new archive centre on the former Redruth Brewery site.
