The Historic Urban Landscape has emerged as a new approach to reconcile heritage conservation and urban development. This approach has been increasingly used in planning literature since 2011. In this study, a four-step conceptual framework is developed by reflexive thematic analysis of recent literature on industrial heritage regeneration and Historic Urban Landscape. By integrating the principles of the Historic Urban Landscapeinto the regeneration of industrial heritage, a planning framework is developed with the aim of establishing recognition, fostering partnership, promoting diagnosis and feasibility, and implementing intervention measures. Also, it seems to help operationalize the Historic Urban Landscape approach in the context of industrial heritage sites by involving all stakeholders.

Keywords: industrial heritage, partnership, heritage value, regeneration, Historic Urban Landscape, conceptual planning framework, reflexive thematic analysis, conservation, development
