Heritage Asset Register

Please note - these pages are currently under construction.

Heritage Assets are the parts of the environment that we value for the historic, archaeological, artistic and architectural interest.  Where these are though to have special or national interest we can protect these as scheduled monuments, listed buildings and conservation areas. 

However, many locally valued heritage assets do not meet the criteria for nation designation. By compiling a register of locally value heritage assets the Council can manage these using their planning policies and by promoting understanding of the things that make them valuable.

The project is in its early stages.  As it progresses we will develop an online nomination form to help you propose a candidate building or place for the heritage asset register.

The project is still in its early stages. As it progresses we will be providing different ways to search for heritage assets.
