Notes:
To be eligible for funding under the English Heritage ALSF Programme, projects must:
1. be directly related to the impact on the historic environment of the extraction of aggregate that is subject to the levy
2. aim to reduce, rather than compensate for, the impact of aggregate extraction
3. be additional to activity in English Heritage's existing grants programmes
4. be additional to mineral operators' obligations through planning conditions
5. be delivered in England
Archaeological projects must in addition meet English Heritage's strategic priorities for archaeology which are currently set out in the Implementation Plan for Exploring our Past 1998 (EoP98).
Marine projects must meet English Heritage's strategic priorities for the marine historic environment which are set out in Taking to the Water.
Community Benefit
English Heritage is committed to widening access to, and understanding and enjoyment of, the historic environment. All projects funded through our ALSF Programme should, wherever possible, deliver these aims through programmes of outreach, education, interpretation and community involvement.
Joint Working & Partnership Funding
We encourage project proposals which promote partnership and joint working across different stakeholder groups and constituencies: the aggregates industry, local government, commercial contractors, the higher education and research sector, other environmental agencies, community groups and not-for-profit organisations, and the independent and voluntary sector.
The English Heritage ALSF Programme has no requirement for partnership funding but applications which bring partnership funding or some other resource contribution, and so lever-in additional resopurces for the historic environment, will be particularly welcomed. For eligible sources of partnership funding please see our Guidance Notes page.
We are happy to consider applications where joint funding is also being sought from English Nature and/or The Countryside Agency and/or CEFAS (for marine projects).

Notes:
The Rosemary Cramp Fund was set up on the retirement of Professor Cramp from the Chair of Archaeology at the University of Durham to honour her many achievements and contributions to archaeology and the heritage.
The Fund makes grants to individuals and organisations who put forward projects that fall within its scope and where there is a strong emphasis on innovation. The main area of interest of the Fund is the archaeology and heritage of the British Isles, with a particular emphasis on Northern Britain between 400 and 1100 AD.
Proposals to assist student research projects are especially welcome, though organisations and other individuals are also encouraged to apply. Archaeological excavation is not normally eligible for support from the Fund.
Applications forms are available from, and must be submitted by 31 October to, The Rosemary Cramp Fund, Department of Archaeology, University of Durham, South Road, Durham DH1 3LE.
