Places: Funding for Activities that Repair, Conserve and Care for Heritage
Grants for projects that repair, conserve and care for historic places including buildings, structures, monuments, landscapes and areas. Historic England’s grants play an important role in helping people care for, enjoy and celebrate England’s spectacular historic environment.
What kinds of buildings and assets can be considered for a Historic England grant?
We can consider grant applications for projects that involve certain types of historic assets.
To be considered, your project must involve one of the following:
- A building or asset listed at Grade I or II*
- A scheduled monument
- A park or garden registered at Grade I or II*
- Grade II buildings, Grade II parks and gardens and other buildings or assets of significant historic or architectural interest, within a conservation area
- Groups of buildings/assets and public realm within a conservation area (for local authority applicants only)
- In exceptional circumstances, Grade II buildings of high community value outside a conservation area will be considered, where the scheme aligns closely with our Corporate Plan, including our regional areas of focus
- Undesignated heritage assets may be eligible if they are in a conservation area or they are of demonstrably equivalent significance to designated assets
Eligible assets owned by public bodies (such as local authorities, universities, NHS institutions, free schools, academies) can be considered for funding provided they are not part of the organisation’s operational estate.
