Listed buildings are listed in 3 categories - A, B and C. Category A listed buildings are of national or international importance. Category B listed buildings are of regional importance. Category C buildings are of local importance. A building’s listing covers its interior, exterior and “any object or structure fixed to a building” or which falls within the curtilage of such a building, forming part of the land since before 1 July 1948.
