This document discusses the process of creating a local heritage list for Marple, UK to recognize and protect important heritage assets not already designated. It began in 2009 in response to a development threat. Criteria for listing were established including architectural, historic, and group value. Over 370 buildings were surveyed based on public nominations, and 109 were recommended for the local list. Benefits include protection for local heritage and consideration in planning. Lessons highlighted the importance of community involvement. Next steps proposed expanding protections for some sites through additional designation as Assets of Community Value.
