Historic buildings and monuments

We are the custodian for about 300 listed buildings, unlisted historic buildings in conservation areas, scheduled ancient monuments and other structures of archaeological importance.

Historic properties in our care include ancient roads, footpaths and bridges, schools, milestones and sign-posts, historic lamp standards, offices, libraries, engine houses and other structures from our industrial past.

Some of our more interesting and historically significant buildings and monuments can be found at these countryside sites:

Buxton Crescent

One of the largest historic properties we own - jointly with High Peak Borough Council -  is Buxton Crescent.

This Grade I listed building, which had been vacant for 25 years, is among the most architecturally significant in the country and is set to reopen as an 80-bedroom thermal spa hotel - the only one of its kind in the North of England.

Find out more about the redevelopment of Buxton Crescent.

Historic building repair grant schemes

Even if your premises are not in a conservation area, grant aid may be available from your district or borough council, the Peak District National Parkor Derby City Council towards repair of listed buildings.
