Top Tips on Researching Heritage Assets
- Try an internet search - there is a lot of useful information available online
- Visit your local library service website to see what is available locally to you.
- Historic photos can be useful to understand the significance of heritage assets. There may be websites local to you which hold old photos. For example Leodis by Leeds Libraries has a good collection for Leeds.
- The West Yorkshire Historic Environment Record may have information about your nomination, and you can search their records through the Heritage Gateway website.
- Your nomination is also a good way to log local knowledge particularly in terms of what heritage assets mean to local communities. So include local stories and communal significance in your nominations.
