English Heritage has been sending out press releases highlighting industrial heritage at risk, together with the rather dubious assertion that "62% of people agree that the industrial revolution is the most important period of British history". This seems to me a rather weighted question taken from near the end of a detailed online survey about industrial heritage that presumably only the most dedicated to industrial history would have bothered completing!
I of course think that prehistory is the most important period of British history, which brings me back to my point, which is that many hundreds or possibly even thousands of prehistoric and other ancient sites are on the list (look I may have exaggerated in my headline there - just to prove I can do it with the best of them - I don't have the full data to count each site yet)
EH have highlighted a few sites, it would be worth as many people as possible glancing through the documents for your area to see what other sites are affected (crowdsourcing and all that).
There is more in our forum.
