Nomination of a Heritage Asset for the Winkfield Parish Register
Definition and Purpose
A heritage asset suitable for local listing is one which is considered to enhance the character and attraction of the local area by its distinctive or outstanding architectural or artistic interest, historic connections or value, or archaeological significance, but which has not been nationally designated by English Heritage.
The reason that an asset is not nationally designated may be that it is not sufficiently distinctive of its type, the historic connection is solely local, the asset has been altered more than was considered acceptable, or in rare cases it is less than 30 years old.
