Heritage
The Historic England registers: scheduled monuments, listed buildings, registered parks and gardens, registered battlefields, World Heritage Sites and protected wreck sites. Wood pasture, parkland and traditional orchards are included because they are as often a heritage asset as an ecological one, and a designed landscape usually explains both.
