GUIDANCE:

General:

Only assets which have a degree of permanence should be considered for inclusion in the Local List.

In terms of whether an object can be considered, size, permanence and physical attachment are key factors. Key questions would be:

Can the object be lifted and moved easily by one or 2 people?

Is it physically attached to the ground or a structure?

Examples might be planting or trees, which although physically attached to the ground, would not be considered and have their own protection under Conservation Areas and TPO’s. Graffiti or a mural would be considered, as they are physically attached to a structure. A park bench would be considered if it was physically attached to the ground and immoveable, but not if not and it could be easily lifted and moved. Vehicles would not be considered, for example wagons on a tramway wouldn’t be considered, however the tramway itself and any infrastructure such as inclined planes, could be.

Only objects of sufficient value in terms of age, meaning, history or beauty that are worthy of recording for future generations should be put forward for inclusion in the Local List.

Inclusion on the Local List doesn’t afford statutory protection of a building or object and it doesn’t protect it from demolition or removal unless it is already in a conservation area and meets certain other criteria. Where planning permission is required being on a local list gives weight as a material planning consideration, something taken into account and balanced with other factors in the decision making process.

Gardens and Designed Landscapes

This dataset comprises an Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland.

Gardens and designed landscapes are grounds which have been laid out for artistic effect and, in appropriate cases, include references to any buildings, land, or water on, adjacent, or contiguous to such grounds. An Inventory garden and designed landscape is a nationally important site that has been included in the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland. Inclusion of a site means that it receives recognition and a degree of protection through the planning system.
