Table showing the selection criteria
| Number | Criteria | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Architectural interest | Buildings and structures of an architectural design, decoration and craftsmanship that contributes positively to their environment and offer a composition that affords value, in its proportions, materials and construction. |
| 2 | Historical interest | A building, object or place that is connected with Salford, Greater Manchester or the north west's social, economic and cultural growth and development, or is concerned with a person or event that plays a significant role in local or regional cultural heritage.
|
| 3 | Age | Local heritage assets will be considered from all periods. However, particular attention will be given to buildings that pre-date 1919 and therefore contribute to the principal industrial era under which the city established itself. Nevertheless, there are many 20th century buildings of impeccable design that must be considered due to their own cultural merits. |
| 4 | Aesthetic value | The appearance of buildings, monuments, places and landscapes, including groups of buildings that individually or together form a set piece or characterise a townscape. Particular attention will be given to style, design, materials, composition and layout. |
| 5 | Local interest |
|
| 6 | Group value | The collective value of a townscape or landscape where individually assets have limited value, yet together comprise a common theme important to the growth of the city or with attractive aesthetic properties. |
| 7 | Landmark value | Assets that have historically marked important moments in the landscape, provide punctuation to streets or mark arrival points. |
| 8 | Social or communal value | Assets that are of value to a particular residential commercial, historical, religious or interest group. |
