But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.

Over that time, we have reduced the number of historic sites which have been at risk from destruction or demolition in many parts of the East of England region.The first category of assets which we focused on were Buildings at Risk. In our region, which has suffered the vicissitudes of industrial slumps and changing demographics alongside periods of rapid economic growth, this has led to a number of important buildings facing serious threats. Some of these are redundant farm buildings, mills and industrial structures, others are anything from private houses to ornamental follies. With the expansion of the Buildings at Risk Register and developers to proceed with some building projects, to a Heritage at Risk Register we have undertaken an with the reduced availability of funding. We understand, assessment of registered battlefields, registered parks and too, why it may sometimes be necessary to delay a gardens, scheduled monuments, conservation areas and project, although we also know that to put off routine protected wreck sites. These additional categories have repairs can in the long term be a false economy.
