What is a Local Heritage List?

The Local Heritage List for Buckinghamshire will celebrate some of the buildings sites and structures that contribute towards making our communities and places special. 

Inclusion on the list does not introduce the need for new Planning Consents or mean that change cannot take place. However, where the planning process applies, it allows for assets to be easily identified and for change to be carefully managed, ensuring that what is most significant about them is protected.

Local Listing provides improved clarity for owners and all interested parties. Significance will be identified as part of the assessment process and once adopted the list will be published on the Council's website and the Buckinghamshire Heritage Portal.
