A designation is evidence about a recorded asset. It is not a condition survey or a planning decision.

02 / FIND THE RECORD

Start with a place you know.

Full addresses help with matching. A town, parish or postcode opens a browse view instead.

We’ll tell you whether the answer is building-level or area-level.

Illustrative lookup · no account or personal data stored.

03 / BROWSE

Explore the register by the question you have.

Browse views keep their geographic scope and evidence boundary visible, even when a place has no matched designation.

04 / METHOD

Record first.
Interpretation second.

ListedBuildingFacts is a reference product, not a legal opinion, condition survey or planning-permission checker. It joins a stable place identity to designation evidence and keeps the evidence boundary visible.

01

Match the place
Resolve the building or area first and state the match level.

02

Read the designation
Keep grade, status, reference and record date as separate facts.

03

Show the boundary
“Not found”, “not checked”, “not published” and “not applicable” are different states.

05 / SOURCE REGISTER

Where the answer comes from.

Production pages should link each material fact to the authoritative source and publish the coverage period, geography and retrieval date.

Official heritage register

Designation record, grade/category, reference, address or location and published record date.
