There are approximately 2,500 listed buildings in Thanet; the largest concentration of listed structures in the south east of England. A listed building can be a building, object or structure that is of historical or architectural interest. The structures are currently added to the Statutory list by English Heritage with the approval of the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport.
Details of all the listed structures in Thanet are available from Conservation and Planning Services.

It is also possible to find other information by searching the Kent Historic Environment Record.
The Historic Environment Record (formerly known as the Sites and Monuments Record), is an extensive collection of information relating to Kent's heritage. This computerised database has information on over 42,000 archaeological sites, historic buildings and landscapes. And also has over 5,000 archaeological reports as well as aerial photographs and historic maps.

Works to the interior or exterior of a listed building (often including buildings or structures within the boundary "curtilage") must be authorised through granting listed building consent. It is a criminal offence to carry out works to a listed building without prior listed building consent.
Applications for listed building consent are made to the council. You can download a listed building application form or request one from planning services
In many cases works to the exterior of the building will also require planning permission which will require a separate application to be made.
You are strongly advised to first check it with a member of the conservation team.
If you require technical advice including about maintenance and repair of listed buildings, this can be obtained from the conservation team.
