HC Deb 06 December 1965 vol 722 c19W
Mr. Bishop

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what action his Department is taking to protect and classify buildings and plant considered to be of interest as industrial archaeology.

Mr. Boyden

My right hon. Friend's powers under the Ancient Monuments Acts and the Historic Buildings and Ancient Monuments Act, 1953, cover industrial structures. Some industrial monuments have already been scheduled. Grants have also been offered in a number of cases towards the cost of repairs.
