We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our Buildings at Risk (B@R) project in South Derbyshire, thanks The National Lottery Heritage Fund and support from South Derbyshire District Council.
Following success in Amber Valley and Derby City, the project now invites local residents to help survey and protect Grade II listed buildings using an easy-to-use app. The app, which was developed by the West Midlands Historic Buildings Trust with support from Historic England, uses a colour-coded system to categorise buildings by their state of repair. This allows volunteers to highlight structures that may need urgent attention.
Join us at our public info events this August:
📍 Melbourne Assembly Rooms – Mon 11 Aug, 6.30–8.30pm
📍 Sharpe’s Pottery Museum – Tues 12 Aug, 2–4pm
Learn about the app, get training, meet the DHBT team & enjoy refreshments!
