What is heritage?Heritage includes many things from the past that we value and want to pass on to future generations,
eg
:
People’s memories and experiences (often recorded as ‘oral history’ or spoken history);
Histories of people and communities (including people who have migrated to the UK);
Languages and dialects;
Cultural traditions such as stories, festivals, crafts, music, dance and costumes; Slide10
So of course are…the “usual suspects”:
Histories of places and events;
Historic buildings and streets;
Archaeological sites;
Collections of objects, books or documents in museums, libraries or archives;
Natural and designed landscapes and gardens;
Natural heritage, including habitats, species and geology; and
Places and objects linked to our industrial, maritime and transport history. Slide11
