National Heritage List for England
I just wanted you to note that English Heritage have just published their National Heritage List for England - and it is fully searchable online. It includes listed buildings, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens...the list goes on.
I'm a little disturbed, however, about the apparent lack of buildings and sites registered in the City of Leicester. I think some nominating may need to occur! We can't only have two sites...
We've a wonderful amount of heritage in this country. If resources such as this can help make people aware of those obscure ones, hidden just around the corner from their homes, then as far as I'm concerned, this is all to the good.

It's an absolutely fantastic tool and seems quite straightforward to use, am glad they published it!
