DARTMOOR National Park Authority has produced a new leaflet entitled ?Listed Buildings on Dartmoor?. The leaflet provides information about a group of protected buildings and structures in the national park, and the contribution they make to the cultural heritage. Whilst residents have heard the phrase ?listed building? few fully understand what it means to own a property with legal protection. The authority hope the information in the leaflet will give a broader understanding of the responsibilities which come with owning or carrying out work on a listed building. The leaflet emphasises the importance of discussing with the local planning authority any proposal for change to the exterior and interior of a listed building which may affect its character and appearance, and obtaining consent before any works.
