The term "listed building", in the United Kingdom, refers to a building or structure designated as being of special architectural, historical, or cultural significance under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. They are categorised in three grades: Grade I consists of buildings of outstanding architectural or historical interest, Grade II* includes significant buildings of more than local interest and Grade II consists of buildings of special architectural or historical interest. Buildings in England are listed by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport on recommendations provided by English Heritage, which also determines the grading.[1]
