The Victorian Society is asking Isle of Wight residents to nominate threatened Victorian buildings for the 2017 Top 10 Endangered Buildings List.
Do you know a Victorian or Edwardian building you feel is under threat? Is there something you wish you could do to help secure its future? Every year The Victorian Society compiles a list of the Top 10 Endangered buildings in England and Wales, shortlisted by architecture and conservation experts.
Appearing in the Top 10 Endangered Buildings List will give your nominated building heightened publicity and could help save it.
Christopher Costelloe, Director of the Victorian Society, says:
“Getting an endangered building in the Top Ten is an invaluable way to bring it to the attention of the people who matter, the people who can ensure its protection. Buildings in previous Top 10 Lists have been bought, sold, restored, protected and repurposed, all because of the people who nominated and campaigned for them.
“If there’s a 19th century building you’re concerned about in your area then please let us know and together we can help ensure its future.”
To nominate a building contact the Victorian Society via email on [email protected] or post at 1 Priory Gardens, London W4 1TT with brief details of the building(s) and at least 1 photo on or before Friday 7th July 2017. The chosen Top 10 list will be announced on Wednesday 13th September 2017.
