Yeovil's Listed Buildings

Yeovil's Listed Buildings

Ranked and Listed Alphabetically by Location

 

Buildings that are of special architectural or historic interest can be listed, which gives them legal protection. Listing celebrates and provides protection to the nation’s special buildings, and anyone can recommend a building for listing. Once a building is listed, changes which might affect its special interest have to be managed through the planning system. Listing buildings of special architectural or historical interest began in the 1940s, with the Town and Country Planning Acts of 1944 and 1947. The list is currently compiled under the terms of section 1 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.

Special architectural interest is about the design and construction of a building, the aspects that we can see and understand when we look at a building. A building might have been designed by a well-known architect, it might be architecturally distinct, or it might be a good example of a style from a particular period

Special historic interest is about the connection between the building and the people who use or have used it, the things that happen or have happened there, the ideas that were developed there or the role that the building played in the town's history.
