Environment

The first listed building survey was carried out from 1993 to 1995; this systematically surveyed all 5,700 listed buildings in the district using the standard procedure. Ten years on and the Council have now completed a re-survey (2001-2005) of all the buildings to highlight changes between the surveys. Whilst many buildings are reviewed regularly, especially if in a critical condition, or a subject of ongoing discussions, the district wide survey will indicate to us if the number of buildings at risk is decreasing, identify any new buildings at risk and show any patterns of problem buildings or areas, which may need different approaches.

Current indications show that some 300 buildings and structures were identified as being ‘at risk’ or vulnerable. This information has since helped the Council identify priorities, targets efforts or resources and try to reduce the numbers.
