England
In England, the government organisation English Heritage maintained an "At Risk Register" of Grade I and Grade II listed buildings. Scheduled ancient monuments at risk were also included on the register along with Grade II listed buildings in London. English Heritage published its first national Buildings at Risk register in 1998. The English 2004 edition included 1,300 entries. The 2007 register included 1,235 buildings and structures; of these the 16 in most serious danger had an estimated repair bill of £127.9m.
