What is a scheduled monument?
Most scheduled monuments are archaeological sites or standing
remains associated with archaeological deposits. The monuments can
be buildings, structures, above or below ground but do not usually
include ecclesiastical buildings or dwellings that are occupied.
Although monuments are considered to be of national importance, the
council recognises that they form a historic legacy in the borough
linking the past with the present.
