This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book focuses on the transmission of heritage and culture from past to future. This is a transfer that needs to be made in the light of a culturally-centred sustainable development. Some lines of future investigation and research arise from the case studies that might help to make the heritage/culture/sustainability relationship more utilitarian and embedded in policy. Heritage and culture are not confined to place. Aspects of both can exist within, that is below, the level of place. They can also transcend place in the sense that a particular type of heritage or cultural activity or memory can occur in many places and perhaps in different contexts at the same time. The book deals with cities and towns; where they are not it can be argued that rural heritage is being seen and reconstructed from urban perspectives.
