Heritage Sites (Canals)

HC Deb 01 May 1996 vol 276 cc529-30W

Mr. Gordon Prentice

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage what estimate he has made of the number of heritage sites which are located alongside or in close proximity to canals. [27337]

Mr. Sproat

No such estimates are possible because information held on listed buildings, scheduled monuments and other heritage sites does not necessarily indicate their relationship to canals.
