Questions about The Ram""
Is The Ram"" on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 16400722).
Can you visit The Ram""?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
When was The Ram"" built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1990–1995.
Is The Ram"" 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.
