1 All listed buildings here have an SMR number, currently the description
field is in a separate table but this will change. We are considering
moving over to Exegesis but note that this does not cater well for
associated building details or incorporation of BAR data. On historic
landscapes I allways say each area has only one monument - all of it,
but we do have places like Badminton park (about 2 parishes worth) as
well as our battlefields. Also studies like the EUS (ours exist as part of
the SMR GIS mapping) extend the scope of the SMR even if each event
doesn't have a separate number.
2 No. In the same way that the army still uses cavalry or that
archaeologists still use terms like neolithic or prehistoric, it is not the
name which counts but the context.
3 Despite what I said in 2 I don't object to a name change, my favorite,
unfortunatetly not an acronym is Cultural Resource Management System.
(CRMS) (isupposse it could be crumbs!
4 see 2 I don't see us ever ceasing to record events = sites.
I not sure of the exact process, I think its orders in council wherby Acts
of Parliament can be modified to include such useage changes. For SMR
read CRMS (or whatever).
5 We are currently making a HLF bid centred around Local Listing with a
large amount of community input
