HERs should include information about listed and other non-listed historic buildings (for example those included in local lists, where these exist) and provide an integrated service for archaeology and the built environment in order to satisfy benchmark 2.1 of Benchmarks for Good Practice ([Chitty 2002|Bibliography#Chitty 2002|target='_blank']). However, many local planning authorities maintain separate Listed Buildings Records for use by their historic buildings conservation officers. These are often be paper-based records incorporating the lists published by the DCMS (England), Welsh Government through Cadw (Wales) or Historic Scotland (Scotland) and files containing conservation and monitoring reports and details of buildings at risk surveys. Ideally conservation officers will use and contribute information to their local HER.

Records of the natural environment (including ecology, geology, biological species) have traditionally been maintained separately from records of the historic environment. A few local authorities have brought together archaeology, buildings and the natural environment to create integrated environment teams. Some HERs record palaeoenvironmental sites as monuments. In Scotland there is the Scottish Wetlands Archaeological Database, commissioned by Historic Scotland, which is not yet incorporated into the SMRs ([http://www.geo.ed.ac.uk/swad/|http://www.geo.ed.ac.uk/swad/|target='_blank']).
