Counting our Heritage A Community-led heritage at risk survey for High Peak and Staffordshire Moorlands
Author(s): Urban Vision
The project assessed the issues arising from using volunteers to survey Grade II listed buildings at risk and to identify potential heritage assets warranting protection through local listing throughout High Peak and Staffordshire. It was a partnership project carried out as part of the National Heritage Protection Plan, involving English Heritage (now Historic England), High Peak Borough Council, Staffordshire Moorlands District Council and Urban Vision North Staffordshire. Over 65% of the total list areas for the survey area were surveyed. The report concludes that it is feasible to use volunteers' survey results and photographs to produce a reliable Heritage At Risk survey, providing there is moderation by the project steering group and anomalies are resolved through a site visit from the Conservation Officer.
