Scheduled monuments in Shropshire information


There are 499 scheduled monuments in the county of Shropshire, England.[1] These protected sites date in some cases from the Neolithic period, and include stone circles, ruined abbeys, castles, Iron Age hillforts and Roman villas.[2] In the United Kingdom, the scheduling of monuments was first initiated to ensure the preservation of "nationally important" archaeological sites and historic buildings. Protection is given to scheduled monuments under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979.[3]
