Yes its a good point - I have similar issues with a Cold War
rocket research site where various 'structures' were originally being considered
for scheduling but then got put proposed for listing at grade II. The case
is not yet resolved and I believe EH were aware there was a bit of an anomaly
especially as some of them were arguably of international significance. Of
course they are not 'nice' architecture - thats the real
problem!

Afternoon All,
This is a bit of a philosophical question rather than
any kind of practical concern, so feel free to delete!
PPS5 (HE9.1) implies that a scheduled monument is
roughly equivalent to a Grade II* (two star) or I (one) Listed Building - so why
are dual designated sites, such as churchyard crosses, so often only Grade II
(two)?
This is something that I have been thinking about since
my Scheduling request for a WW2 5.25" Heavy Anti Aircraft Battery was changed to
a Listing case and I started to think about what Grade it would come out as.
There are two HAA batteries on the List and both are Grade II
(two); however, with the vast majority of these sites being Scheduled I
have to wonder if II* (Two Star) is more suitable, if Listing is even
appropriate in the first place!
Maybe I'm over thinking things (I have had an extremely
long time to think about this case), but I'd like to know if anyone else has
thought about this,
Cheers,
Hugh
