Heritage Listings

Heritage listings are official recognitions of sites, buildings, or areas that hold cultural, historical, or architectural significance. They are protected by laws to preserve their character and importance for future generations. Being heritage-listed means any changes or development must consider the site's value, ensuring its historical integrity is maintained. These listings help safeguard valuable parts of a community’s identity, including landmarks, historic districts, or unique architecture, allowing people to appreciate and learn from the past while maintaining the area's cultural fabric.
