Questions about Presentation Convent

Is Presentation Convent on the National Inventory?

Yes: rated Regional (record 22312056).

Can you visit Presentation Convent?

It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.

When was Presentation Convent built?

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.
