[Historic England|Glossary#Historic England|target='_blank'] has assembled a Register of Parks and Gardens of special historic interest and another for historic battlefields in England. These registers are used to alert owners and others to the significance of an area of land. Although no additional statutory controls are available, planning authorities are recommended to take account of these sites in preparing development plans ([DoE 1994a|Bibliography#DoE 1994a|target='_blank']).

No battlefields register exists for Wales, although an inventory of battlefields is now in preparation by the RCAHMW. In Scotland there is an Inventory of Historic Gardens and Designed Landscapes. Consultation must take place with Historic Scotland in respect of any planning applications affecting an Inventory site under [The Town and Country Planning (General Development Procedure Permitted Development) (Scotland) Order 1992|Bibliography#Statutory Instruments 1992|target='_blank'].
