Listed Buildings in Malhamdale

A list of buildings which are included in the National Monument Register.   

Many Malhamdale buildings of historic or architectural value are Listed, which prevents their alteration or demolition without permission. It is relatively easy to find out a little about the building, the reasons for listing and possibly see a photograph of it as it stands today by consulting the NMR on the web.

Buildings are listed for a variety of reasons such as Architectural or Historic interest, Historical associations and for Group value, where buildings together make up an important architectural or historical unity or a fine example of planning such as squares or terraces, and model farms or villages.

Every Listed Building has a List Description which can vary from a few lines to several pages of detailed architectural description and these lists are public documents with copies held by local authorities as well as the National Monuments Record.

In 2000 English Heritage launched the Images of England project with the aim of creating a website containing photographs and descriptions of every listed structure. The basis for the database is the NMR List Description and these can all be found on the website. Volunteer photographers both amateur and professional are steadily creating the photographic records to accompany the descriptions. Usefully, all the written records are available online even if there isn't yet a photograph.

The descriptions you can find on the Images of England website contain at least the address or grid reference of the building, however most listings offer more than this, with details of the building's appearance, history and significance. The list below does not include listed structures such as bridges or mile posts.

The descriptions can be quite technical as they identify what features are protected by law and what it is that makes the building of special interest. They can also be quite enlightening, offering brief information about the building history and the families who owned and developed the buildings and indicating when phases of development took place. They may also contain references to other useful sources of information, both published and unpublished, which were consulted in the compilation of the description.

The list doesn't include listed structures such as bridges and monuments.
