The council is updating its local list - a record of buildings, monuments, sites, places, areas and landscapes that have a 'degree of significance' - and is asking residents for nominations, external.
The classification can demonstrate the community's strength of feeling when planning applications are decided - and potentially save structures from demolition.
Quote MessageAt its heart, local heritage listing provides a much-needed opportunity for communities to have their views on local heritage heard. It recognises that the importance we place on the historic environment should extend beyond the confines of the planning system to recognise those community-based values that contribute to our sense of place.

North Somerset Council has stepped in to save a bus service after the commercial operator pulled out because of falling passenger numbers and fierce competition.
The current 106 bus service, which operates from Regent Street in Weston-super-Mare to Worlebury, had been operated by Carmel Bristol on an interim basis after the service was withdrawn by Crosville last month.
Crosville Motor Services decided to end its local bus and school transport services after struggling with "fierce competition" and "challenging" market conditions.
The bus and coach company, which has a fleet of 30 modern and vintage vehicles and operates services 100 and 106 in Weston-super-Mare, also decided to end its shopper services.
North Somerset Council has now agreed to deploy its own minibus to the area to ensure communities have a regular transport link into the town centre, while the authority comes up with a long-term solution.
The service aims to operate hourly on Mondays to Fridays (excluding public holidays).
The exhibition honouring Sir Terry Pratchett at Salisbury Museum has been given a national award.

Speaking after PC Claire Boddie was found not guilty of assaulting Judah Adunbi, 64, in Bristol last year, Mr Brown said: "Justice doesn't work for people of colour in Bristol. There is a disturbing pattern.
"It feels like trying to move a dinosaur that doesn't want to change.
"We are now considering civil action and will continue to fight for justice and equality."
The force's deputy chief constable, Sarah Crew - who leads the force's diversity and inclusion board - said there were areas of community engagement to be "proud" of "but we know there's more work to do".
She added the force has a string of groups dedicated to this work.

A total of 800 people were fined last month for environmental offences in Bristol.
This brings the total number of fines handed out by the council's controversial "litter police" since the beginning of the year to 4,347.
The civil enforcement officers, hired by the council from external company Kingdom, have the power to issue fines of up to £100 to anyone they catch dropping litter or defacing property with graffiti.
Bristol City Council said picking up litter costs the city £6m a year; money that could be better spent elsewhere.
Image source, Getty ImagesNorth Somerset Council has been urged to reconsider a park-and-ride scheme in Weston-super-Mare following traffic issues over the Bank Holiday weekend.
Last year the council's executive member for transport, Elfan Ap Rees, ruled out the notion of a park-and-ride for the town due to cost concerns.
But now Liberal Democrat councillor Mike Bell has said the traffic jams over the first May Bank Holiday weekend "showed that a fresh approach to traffic management in the town was needed".
But while Cllr Ap Ress agreed there can be a problem at peak holiday periods, he said a park-and-ride scheme was not viable on a permanent basis.
He said the council was looking at possible emergency parking options on council-owned land close to junction 21 of the M5.

Quote MessageWhile we are limited in what we can say while these proceedings are ongoing, to ensure they are conducted fairly and without prejudice, we do want to acknowledge the deep and genuine concerns this incident has raised in some of our communities. We want to be open and transparent about our use of powers, including use of Taser, so communities trust us to use them appropriately and lawfully. This also means having processes in place to independently scrutinise how we use them.
