Questions about Fore
Is Fore on the National Inventory?
It is a national monument on the Sites and Monuments Record (WM004-035010-), cared for by the State.
Can you visit Fore?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
Is Fore 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.
