Preserving National Identity Through Digital Conservation
From Castles to Coal Mines, Wales Has Stories to Tell
Across Wales, heritage buildings tell the story of its people from medieval castles that guarded the borderlands, to miners’ institutes and chapels that shaped working communities. At Cr8ive Media UK, we use drone photogrammetry to help capture these stories in rich visual detail.
​
Our service is particularly suited to preservation trusts and local councils managing Wales’s diverse stock of historic properties. With detailed 3D models, condition imagery, and web-based sharing tools, you can build a clear case for funding, manage repairs, and keep accurate records for future generations all without disrupting public access or day-to-day use.
Built for Wales’ Unique Conservation Needs
Surveying a hilltop castle or a weathered coastal church poses real logistical challenges. Our drones can safely capture the upper levels of towers, roof valleys, stonework, and gables without the need for complex access equipment. The result: more insight, faster decisions, and lower costs.
​
We’ve worked with projects involving slate-roofed cottages, public buildings, rural halls and fortified structures. All scans are processed into accessible formats suitable for planning, grant reports, and archiving.
Case Example: Chapel Survey in Gwynedd
A historic chapel near Llandudno was facing urgent roof repairs. We conducted a full aerial scan, producing a condition report and textured 3D model. The trustees can use this digital evidence to support a grant application. We hope that they arte awarded funding for emergency works.
