APPLYING TO HAVE A BUILDING LISTED
Buildings are considered in two ways:
- anyone can ask the appropriate body listed above to consider
an individual building; and
- buildings are listed if identified as being of special
architectural or historic interest.
If you wish to apply to have a building considered for listing,
you should send the following to the relevant listing authority
shown above:
- clear original photographs of the building showing all
accessible sides as they are at present, including internal
photographs if possible (please label the photographs on
the back);
- an Ordnance Survey or A to Z map extract (or an up-to-date
site plan) showing the location of the building –
if possible please indicate on it the position from which
the photographs were taken and its postcode;
- any information you have on the building’s architectural
and historical interest; details of any threat to the building
which you are aware of which may affect its architectural
or historic interest; and
- where possible, the name and contact telephone number
for the owner.
