listed buildings of lytham st annes book

New Book Published

Buildings recorded by English Heritage
as of special architectural or historic interest

This unique book uncovers the rich heritage of Lytham St Annes, with colour photographs of every listed building in the town. It contains interesting historical information about the buildings and how they fit into the town's development, with general information about why buildings are listed.

There is also a section of photographs of buildings all over the town which we feel are undervalued - or in some cases under threat.

One purpose of the book is to record the situation at the turn of the millennium and to provoke discussion in the town as to what should be valued/preserved and why. There are buildings which you may think should be included but are not - and others which are featured but should not be. We are sure, however, that you will be amazed at our rich architectural heritage.

The book is very attractively presented. There are 100 pages with over 200 colour photographs, and it is packed full of interesting information about the town.

The Society was pleased to receive a millennium lottery award to help with the printing costs.
