Is Frederick House on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 50010892).
Can you visit Frederick House?

When was Frederick House built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1800–1820.

Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
