Listed Buildings In The United Kingdom
This is a list of listed buildings in the United Kingdom. The organization of the lists in this series is on the same basis as the statutory registers, which generally rely on counties. For England and Wales, the county names are broadly those of the ceremonial counties of England and Wales and do not always match the current administrative areas, whereas in most cases they parallel the current subdivisions of Scotland. In Northern Ireland the province's six traditional counties are used, and these are unchanged in modern times. Different classifications of listed buildings are used in different parts of the United Kingdom: *England and Wales: Grade I, Grade II* and Grade II; *Scotland: Category A, Category B and Category C *Northern Ireland: Grade A, Grade B+, Grade B1 and Grade B2 Listed buildings in the United Kingdom The lists for the countries of the UK are at: *Listed buildings in England *Listed buildings in Scotland * Listed buildings in Northern Ireland *Listed ...

The charity states that it uses these properties to "bring the story of England to life for over 10 million people each year".

Scheduled Monument
In the United Kingdom, a scheduled monument is a nationally important archaeological site or historic building, given protection against unauthorised change. The various pieces of legislation that legally protect heritage assets from damage and destruction are grouped under the term "designation." The protection provided to scheduled monuments is given under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979, which is a different law from that used for listed buildings (which fall within the town and country planning system). A heritage asset is a part of the historic environment that is valued because of its historic, archaeological, architectural or artistic interest. Only some of these are judged to be important enough to have extra legal protection through designation. There are about 20,000 scheduled monuments in England representing about 37,000 heritage assets.
