Historic England's Heritage at Risk (HAR) programme helps understand the overall state of England's historic sites. The programme identifies those sites that are most at risk of being lost as a result of neglect, decay or inappropriate development.

Every year Historic England updates the Heritage at Risk Register. The end result is a dynamic picture of the sites most at risk and most in need of safeguarding for the future. Below are the Stoke-ot-Trent buildings and conservation areas currently appearing on the list (changes from 2024 in bold).
