Heritage Counts 2006 is the fifth annual survey of the state of England’s historic environment. The report identifies the principal trends and challenges facing the historic environment, with a particular focus in 2006 on the role that communities play by valuing and engaging in England’s heritage, drawing on new evidence on who visits historic sites. There is an Executive Summary, the full national report and a separate set of national indicators for the historic environment, all available on-line. Alongside the national report, nine regional reports provide further detail on the state of the historic environment in each of England’s regions. Heritage Counts is prepared by English Heritage on behalf of the Historic Environment Review Executive Committee and the Regional Historic Environment Forums.
Hard copies of the Executive Summary of Heritage Counts 2006 can be ordered from English Heritage Customer Services on 0870 333 1181 or the report is available to download from the Heritage Counts website.
