For the 60% of listed buildings on this year’s Register that could have a sustainable future through commercial or residential reuse, the economic downturn has brought additional challenges to which we must now respond. This year, we undertook a pioneering 15% sample survey of England’s 14,500 listed places of worship to help us understand the condition of the thousands of designated churches, chapels, synagogues, mosques and temples and other faith buildings that are the spiritual focus for our communities. They face many different kinds of challenges and we need to ensure their future. In response to the expansion of asset types and changed Last year we included conservation areas in the Register economic conditions we have developed a new strategy. for the first time. This year, 46 of these, including Haworth, From now on we will focus our resources on types of Holbeck and Rotherham, are known to be at risk, site that make a particular contribution to the region’s but the survey of nearly 800 areas is proving a challenging character.

The Register provides an Wannual snapshot of historic sites known to be at risk from neglect, decay or inappropriate development. Nationally, there are more barrows on the Register than any other type of site. The main risk to their survival is ploughing. The good news is that since 2014 we have reduced the number of barrows at risk by over 130, by working with owners and, in particular, Natural England to improve their management. This picture is repeated in Yorkshire, where the greatest concentration of barrows at risk is in the rich farmland of the Wolds.

Overall, the number of buildings at risk has fallen, although we are seeing a steady increase in the proportion of buildings on the Register that are capable of beneficial re-use.These have become vacant not because of any fundamental lack of potential, but as the temporary victims of the current economic climate. The average conservation deficit for buildings has increased as end-values have stagnated or fallen. We are now into the third year of our thematic Our Chair, Baroness Andrews, recently visited Joel’s Yard approach, which focuses on the most distinctive aspects in Sheffield to celebrate the completion of repairs and of Yorkshire’s heritage at risk.We have had another strong to announce a further grant of £300,000 for the adjacent year, removing 56 sites from the Register and offering North Yard.
