Hey there! 👋 Have you ever seen an old castle or a cool ancient building and wondered who takes care of it? In the UK, there’s a special group called Historic England that does just that! 🛡️ They make sure our country’s amazing history stays alive for everyone to enjoy.
Our friend, reporter Stuart Smith, chatted with Charles Smith, a director at Historic England, right outside a super old 19th-century cotton mill in northern England. This mill used to make tons of cotton back in the day! 🧵 Now, it’s getting a fresh start as a modern place for businesses, but they’re keeping all the neat old features that make it special. How cool is that? 😄
Charles told us that Historic England works hard to protect places like this mill. They’re like superheroes for old buildings! 🦸♂️ They make sure that while we move forward with new ideas and technology, we don’t forget the awesome history that got us here.
So next time you pass by an old building or a historic site, remember there’s a team out there making sure it’s cared for. Maybe one day, you’ll visit or even help protect these places too! 🌟
