Point in time view as at 15/01/2007. This version of this provision has been superseded.
You are viewing this legislation item as it stood at a particular point in time. A later version of this or provision, including subsequent changes and effects, supersedes this version.
Note the term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section.
Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997, Section 1 is up to date with all changes known to be in force on or before 05 September 2024. There are changes that may be brought into force at a future date. Changes that have been made appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.
Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time.

(1)For the purposes of this Act and with a view to the guidance of planning authorities in the performance of their functions under this Act in relation to buildings of special architectural or historic interest, the Secretary of State shall compile lists of such buildings or approve, with or without modifications, such lists compiled by other persons or bodies of persons, and may amend any list so compiled or approved.

(4)In this Act “listed building” means a building which is for the time being included in a list compiled or approved by the Secretary of State under this section; and, for the purposes of this Act, the following shall be treated as part of the building—
(a)any object or structure fixed to the building, and
(b)any object or structure within the curtilage of the building which, though not fixed to the building, forms part of the land and has done so since before 1st July 1948.
