Locally Listed Buildings in Hackney

Local listing is a way for the London Borough of Hackney Council to identify local heritage assets and set out what about them is important. The list contains buildings and structures of heritage significance that contribute to the local character and distinctiveness of Hackney. These assets are designated as heritage assets, making their conservation an objective of the national planning policy framework, though they lack the statutory protections of nationally listed buildings.

• [Heritage asset identification] based on [local listing criteria for buildings and structures]
• [Urban planning and development review] based on [designation as a heritage asset with conservation objectives]

Strengths
