Campaigning for threatened historic buildings

ABOUT SAVE

Welcome to SAVE Britain's Heritage. SAVE has been campaigning for historic buildings since its formation in 1975 by a group of architectural historians, journalists and planners. SAVE is a strong, independent voice in conservation, free to respond rapidly to emergencies and to speak out loud for the historic environment.

LATEST CAMPAIGNS

Building of the Month November 2024: Ivy Cottage, Kelvin Grove, Liverpool

Ivy Cottage is a locally loved landmark building within the already famous ‘Welsh Streets’. Following SAVE’s major campaign in 2015 to revive the Welsh Streets, the streets were transferred to Manchester-based house builders, Placefirst, who have since undertaken the restoration of the neighbourhood with their heritage-led regeneration scheme. However, Ivy Cottage remains vacant and deteriorating having not yet joined the ranks of its surrounding neighbourhood as a restoration success.
