Title

Registered Historic Parks & Gardens: Registered Areas

Abstract

1.1 Background Historic parks and gardens are part of Wales’s national identity. They enrich the texture and pattern of our landscapes and form a valuable record of social, cultural and economic change. Many offer outstanding conservation value for wildlife as well as opportunities for public recreation. As a source of enjoyment and learning, and a valuable network of green spaces, our historic parks and gardens play an important role in building a healthier and greener Wales. Historic parks and gardens are a fragile and finite resource that can be easily damaged or lost. It is important to raise awareness of their significance and to encourage those involved in their management to treat them as valuable and distinctive places. Through their care and commitment to safeguarding these precious assets, we will all be able to enjoy these historic parks and gardens of special historic interest now and in the future. Registration identifies sites which are of special historic interest to Wales.  The Register was compiled in order to aid the informed conservation of historic parks and gardens by owners, local planning authorities, developers, statutory bodies and all concerned with them. The Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2016 makes it a statutory duty for the Welsh Ministers, through Cadw, to compile and maintain a register of historic parks and gardens in Wales.   Sites on the statutory Register continue to be a material consideration in the development control process. 1.2 Frequency of Update Although the process to designate Parks & Gardens is ongoing, the current dataset has remained static for a number of years, however to avoid re-using old data, users should periodically obtain the latest version of the data. 1.3 Depictions The GIS depictions were drawn from the most accurate Ordnance Survey base mapping available at the time of composition. Additional sources to inform the depictions include historic areial photography and Landmark Historic mapping. The information in the register entry gives an indication of the national importance of the site. It is not a definitive account or a complete description of the site. The significant view arrows represent the direction rather than the extent of the view 1.4 Use of Data There are no use restrictions on this data.
