Details
Enfield Council is currently reviewing our Local Heritage List, and we would love to hear from you. Heritage plays a crucial role in shaping and reinforcing the unique character of our local area. By identifying and protecting these heritage assets, we help preserve the distinctiveness of our community for future generations.
Local Heritage Lists are an essential tool that provides a consistent and accountable method for identifying local heritage assets in collaboration with the community. By including an asset on this list, its significance is acknowledged, and it becomes an important consideration for the local planning authority when evaluating planning applications that may impact the heritage asset or its setting.
In 2022/23, Enfield Council, in collaboration with the Enfield Society, a volunteer civic society, undertook a comprehensive review of the 2018 Local Heritage List. Volunteers from the Enfield Society and the local community played a vital role in surveying the Borough to reassess the 2018 entries and identify potential new candidates for inclusion in Enfield’s Local Heritage List 2024.
The final decision on whether to include an asset in the Local Heritage List was made by Enfield Council, guided by the recommendations of a Review Panel. This panel included Planning and Heritage Officers from Enfield Council, members of the Enfield Society, other local conservation bodies, and a representative from Historic England.
Who can participate
Your input is invaluable in this process, and we encourage you to share your thoughts and suggestions. This consultation is open for a period of 4 calendar weeks. During this consultation we are seeking feedback on the draft Local Heritage List from the community, particularly those owners or occupiers of properties proposed for addition or removal. We also encourage members of the wider community to share their knowledge with us so we can ensure the entry for each heritage asset accurately describes its history and significance.
Together, we can ensure that our Local Heritage List truly reflects the rich and diverse history of our community.
