Heritage Crime (resources)

Heritage crime is any unlawful activity which harms historic assets, including buildings, monuments, parks, gardens and landscapes. This can mean theft, criminal damage or anti-social behaviour, which not only can damage the historic assets themselves but can also interfere with the public’s understanding and enjoyment of them.

This resource provides an opportunity for pupils to express opinions, discuss scenarios, and identify different types of crime within the slate landscape. The outcomes could include designing a poster or a campaign to protect the Slate Landscape of Northwest Wales World Heritage Site.
