You don’t have to be an expert to get involved.
The Heritage Warden network is made up of volunteers who help monitor and conserve the rich heritage of Leicestershire’s countryside and landscape.
The network is run with support from Leicestershire County Council’s Community Heritage Initiative, a project supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund and Rutland County Council. This scheme helps people to record and celebrate natural heritage and provides volunteers with a wealth of information, literature and support to undertake heritage and countryside studies. More »
Heritage Wardens are asked to keep an eye on local sites of heritage importance. Natural history recording is one of the main focuses of the project. Recording habitats, such as wildflower meadows, ancient woodlands, hedgerows and field ponds, is a top priority and will help to give an insight into the state of the environment in Leicestershire.
Being a Heritage Warden does not require any specialist expertise in the field of heritage recording and can take up as much or as little time as you can spare. By becoming a Heritage Warden you may be able to help in the conservation of the heritage in the local environment. Through local observation of sites, threats to their value can be ascertained at an early stage.
Wardens have access to:
Updates on legislation relevant to conservation and the countryside.
A wide range of information and expertise which local people will be able to tap into.
Training sessions to equip them with the skills needed to help safeguard local heritage.
Monthly newsletters informing them of current surveys, both local and national, relevant training courses and opportunities for funding.

Cadeby Hall Fete - 4 August 2007
The Annual Village Fete was held on Saturday 4 August 2007. It took place in the grounds of Cadeby Hall, by kind permission of the owners Gillian and Simon Warner. The usual stalls were set up under the trees on the front lawn. There was a used bookstall, a tombola, bric-a-brac, and various games like a coconut shy. There were plenty of visitors, who then enjoyed a visit to the stable courtyard, where a fine afternoon tea with home made cakes was served. Guests also took a walk through the exquisite gardens. Astonishingly, the weather stayed fine! The magnificent sum of £1530.00 was raised in support of the Restoration Fund for All Saints Church, Cadeby.
