– The Local Heritage List recognizes assets and landmarks of particular significance.
– Overall, 1,466 assets were added to the list on June 19, bringing the total number of designated sites to 2,237.
– This comes after the council put out an appeal to the public, resulting in almost 3,500 nominations.
– These were then assessed by a team of volunteers.
– Assets are placed on the list if they are deemed to be of historical or cultural value.
– The list will help protect local heritage assets for future generations to enjoy.
– For instance, assets on this list will be recognized and considered in any future planning applications.
– The list is separate from Historic England’s grading system for heritage assets, which has legal force under the Planning and Development Act 2000.
