ON THE FORMATION OF A LEGISLATIVE SYSTEM FOR THE PROTECTION OF ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE IN THE UK IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
Activities for the protection of cultural and architectural heritage in Europe actively developed in the twentieth century. One of the components of this activity was the creation of a legislative protection system - an important part and stage of the restoration domain development. By the end of the twentieth century, the protection system in Europe was almost formed. Despite the generally accepted standards and the constant interaction of specialists, there are differences in the legislation of European countries, and regional features are particularly pronounced in the laws of Great Britain. A study of the formation and evolution of the existing legislative framework allows us to comprehend the development path of British conservation and restoration activities, which is very different from classical Italian, to understand the prerequisites and causes of the current situation with architectural heritage.
