Scheduled Monuments
Some monuments are designated as
"Scheduled Monuments" under the Ancient Monuments and
Archaeological Areas Act 1979.
These sites are recognised as being
of national significance and are protected by law.
The regulation of any works affecting an Ancient Monument or its
designated area in Wales are presided over by Cadw, to which applications for
Scheduled Monument Consent need to be submitted. Where a building
or site is both a Scheduled Monument and a Listed Building, the
structure's status as a monument takes precedence.
There are over 100 Scheduled Monuments in the Vale, an inventory
of which is available to download here. Inventory
