Abstract: |
The Historic Buildings of Worcestershire (HBW) Project aims to provide a comprehensive and consistent record of all surviving historic buildings in Worcestershire. For the purposes of this project, a building is defined as historic if it appears on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey maps of 1882-89. There are at least 40,000 buildings in the county that date to the 19th century or earlier. They are an integral part of the landscape, define the character of settlements and create a sense of place for the people living in them. Only 6,500 of these buildings are Listed, the rest being unrecorded and unprotected. The project aims to create a simple photographic and written record of these buildings. This data will then be integrated into the Worcestershire and Worcester City Historic Environment Records, which will provide a long term repository for the data and allow it to be interrogated in conjunction with many other datasets. |
