Conserving our Buildings

The Heritage Watch Group has been working with Leeds City Council's Conservation Team to update our Heritage at Risk List. This list includes both listed and unlisted buildings in Leeds that are considered worthy of preservation, but at risk. Buildings on our list are either Urgent (that is, in immediate structural danger) or At Risk (that is, vulnerable through neglect and decay). Click below to see the Heritage at Risk List.

Heritage at Risk List

The main aim of the register is to stimulate action, we give the name of the owner where known; the next stage is to work with the owners and Leeds City Council to bring the most vulnerable and important buildings back from the brink.

Living in a Conservation Area guide and Heritage Shopfront Guide

In 2023 we launched two new guides in “heritage shop fronts” and “Living in a conservation area'. These guides provide practical advice for everyone who owns or operates a heritage property or lives and works in a conservation area.

Please follow the links below to view each leaflet.
