This is good timing from English Heritage: Listing for Cranfield war memorial
To the Parish Council Clerk:
Cranfield War Memorial, Junction of High Street and Church Walk, Cranfield, Bedfordshire – Awarded Listed Building Status
We have been considering adding Cranfield War Memorial to the List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. We have taken into account all the representations made, and completed our assessment of the memorial. I am pleased to inform you that having considered our recommendation, the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport has decided to add Cranfield War Memorial to the List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. The memorial is now listed at Grade II.
The List entry for this building, together with a map, has now been published on the National Heritage List for England, and will be available for public access from tomorrow. This List can be accessed through our website.
Listing helps us to mark a building’s significance and celebrate its special architectural and historic interest. It brings specific protection so that its special interest can be properly considered in managing its future. Listing does not mean, however, that no alterations can be made - in fact in the vast majority of cases applications to make changes to a listed building are approved. Further information about listed buildings can be found on the ‘Your Property’ pages of our website.
Your local planning authority will now be preparing the statutory notices required under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest.
Please be aware that the listing of the memorial took effect on the day that the List entry was published on the National Heritage List for England.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any further assistance. More information can also be found on our website at English Heritage
