Understanding Building Grades
Buildings in England are given special grades to show how important they are. This helps protect them.
- Grade I: These are super important buildings. They are often seen as special around the world.
- Grade II*: These buildings are very important and have more than just special interest.
- Grade II: These buildings are important to the country and have special interest.
- —: This means a building does not have a special grade.
