I gather that the first two words of the title were missed out and that the
full title should read 'Only England's Heritage Counts'

>
> The recent BBC series "Restoration" has made millions of viewers aware
> of the plight of 30 of our most important listed buildings and has done
> much to further their cause. But what about the rest of England's
> heritage?
>
> "Heritage Counts" is an audit of the state of the whole of our historic
> environment: listed buildings, ancient monuments, archaeology, churches,
> conservation areas, rural landscapes, market towns and inner cities. It
> will be published by English Heritage on Wednesday 26th November, 2003.
>
> Produced by English Heritage on behalf of the heritage sector, Heritage
> Counts is in its second year. It has already become an essential guide
> to the true state of arguably England's greatest asset. It sets
> statistics showing that much of the heritage is in peril against
> research which proves that, if properly cared for, the historic
> environment leads to social and economic regeneration and enhances the
> quality of all our lives.
>
> Heritage Counts will also include facts and figures on the state of
> heritage education in our schools and communities, on heritage tourism
> and on employment in the historic environment.
>
> This year Heritage Counts will contain new research on:
>
> - the vast numbers of volunteers in the heritage sector;
>
> - the harm caused to the quality of our streets by piecemeal changes
> such as new windows, loft conversions, conservatories, tarmaced front
> gardens;
>
> - the vulnerability and state of decay of historic parks and gardens;
>
> - the challenge to the heritage sector to include all groups of
> society; and
>
> - the economic contribution the heritage makes to the national
> economy.
>
> "Restoration" signals a culture change, an emerging passion among the
> general public to save their local heritage and a new willingness to
> think creatively and imaginatively about re-using redundant historic
> buildings. Heritage Counts will not be asking for readers' votes but we
> hope it will be a spur to the action needed on all fronts to save our
> historic environment for future generations.
>
> Notes to Editors
> Heritage Counts will take the form of one summary document, one main
> document and nine regional documents produced by English Heritage
> regional offices in collaboration with regional Historic Environment
> Forums.
