Questions about West View

Yes: rated Regional (record 21511011).
Can you visit West View?
Many historic buildings are private homes; this one can be seen from the street.
When was West View built?

Is West View protected?
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.
