Our listed buildings
Listed buildings are buildings of special architectural or historic interest and are listed by Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport based on recommendations from Historic England. These are based on principles of selection for listed buildings.
Wandsworth has around 500 listed buildings which include a wide range of building types and ages that are considered to be of national importance.
Our listed buildings include:
- Bridges across the Thames
- Burial tombs in several cemeteries
- Many houses

Listed Building Consent is required to carry out works of alteration or demolition to a listed building, both externally and internally. This consent is dealt with by Wandsworth's planning service.
