Drone Photogrammetry for Heritage Sites in Wirral

Connecting Generations Through Digital Preservation

From the sandstone churches of Bebington to the Victorian seaside architecture of West Kirby, Wirral’s buildings tell the story of a region rich in social and architectural history. At Cr8ive Media UK, we use drone photogrammetry to support the preservation of this unique legacy. By capturing high-resolution 3D models of heritage buildings, we provide essential tools for conservation, planning, and funding applications.

Our services are designed to be accessible to everyone from small community charities to large regional trusts. Whether you’re caring for a listed landmark or a locally important site, we make it easier to document historic assets in detail, understand their condition, and plan for their future care.

Practical, Professional, Preservation-Focused

Wirral’s heritage buildings often feature complex elements, from chimney stacks and decorative brickwork to inaccessible roof valleys that all demand careful inspection. Drone photogrammetry offers a safer, quicker, and more cost-effective alternative to traditional access methods such as scaffolding or cherry pickers.

Our aerial surveys deliver sub-centimetre accuracy, making them suitable for planning applications involving listed or protected structures. All deliverables are hosted online, giving easy access to stakeholders, architects, and funding partners whether they’re working nearby or remotely.

Example: Heritage Barn Survey in Rural Wirral

We recently worked with a local conservation charity to document a rare 19th-century agricultural building in Wirral’s rural heartland. Using drone photogrammetry, we produced a detailed 3D model that highlighted structural risks in the roof and walls. This model served as a baseline record and helped the charity act before further weathering occurred.

For a survey fee of just £395, we provided an interactive web-based mesh, a high-quality drone video, and a measurement-ready model. These outputs are directly supporting a rural preservation grant application, enabling targeted repairs to proceed.
