Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Applied Geography, grade: 5.00, Manchester Metropolitan University Business School, language: English, abstract: The history of English heritage starts from distant 1882 when the collection of remarkable buildings and monuments began. Being a responsibility of the Office of Works at that stage, the Act of Parliament in 1913 transformed it into an impressive collection of 273 sites. Also, all these places including Stonehenge, Carisbrook Castle, and Richborough Roman fort, were open to the public. In the period after the Second World War due to financial grounds, the National Trust took responsibility of the county houses, owned by English Heritage and the Ministry of Works restricted its activities to the older monuments. It was remarkable that by 1970 the English part of the collection accounted for 300 sites, visited by 5.5 million people. In 1983, under the rule of Margaret Thatcher's government and its first chairman Lord Montagu of Beaulieu, it received the name English Heritage. Furthermore, the organization performed two important tasks during his rule; first, it initiated the national system of protection of the heritage and second took care of the National Heritage Collections. Several innovations such as the introduction of a membership scheme and the collection of buildings such as country houses took place in the period from 1986 to mid-2000s. Three years ago in 2015, the national heritage collection was shifted to a charitable trust.
