How To Apply To Have Your Building Listed

How can I apply to have a building listed?

If you saw a building in the area in which you lived or even indeed one that you owned and you thought, 'I wonder if this is important enough to be listed?' The listing is done by government department. But if you went to your local planning authority and said, ' I found this, I've read this, this is why I think this building ought to be listed," your local historic buildings officer may well help in doing that initial analysis. And indeed, if they think the case is worthy, take it up with the government department and get an inspection carried out. All the time, new things are coming to light about the way buildings are put together. Maybe make some alterations and then cover something about the history of the building. And even molden buildings are now subject to listing because they are seen as architectually important in the way the designs have developed.
