Cultural Heritage Strategy
The
cultural heritage of the Peak District National Park includes all the evidence of past human activity
– sites, monuments, buildings, landscapes and settlements – as well as local customs and traditions,
and music, art and literature inspired by the area.
The cultural heritage is a key element in the social, economic and environmental development of the Peak District.
Society is constantly developing and, as a result, the cultural heritage is always under threat. In response to this, the National Park Authority and a wide range of partners and stakeholders have collaborated on producing this Cultural Heritage Strategy for the Peak District National Park.
Part 1 sets the national, regional and local context, explains terms and provides an overview of the cultural heritage of the Peak District.
Part
2 is the Action Plan. It identifies
what should
be done and how, who should do it and what the results should be.
