Abstract

We live in a world shaped by history, but nowhere is this more prevalent than in the many listed buildings that adorn our towns, villages, and countryside. It is possible to rejuvenate a listed building through posive regeneraon, which incorporates conservaon techniques with modern uses. The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of listed building regulaons, legislaon, policies and supporng measures on the regeneraon of these key parts of our street scene. Research will be conducted by a mixed method approach, combining a qualitave survey and interview to analyse impacts. The findings of the study include the underulisaon of key powers, such as Building Preservaon Noces, and recommend changes such as a reducon in VAT rate for listed buildings. The results of this study can be used by future researchers and industry professionals to inform their decisions and future research.
