Buildings in the context of these Guidelines include structures created in the past to shelter activities related to habitation, business or social functions, including houses, apartment buildings, hotels and other residential buildings; stores, offices, warehouses and other commercial buildings; auditoriums, stadiums, town halls, court houses, schools, places of worship; and other recreational and institutional buildings. These structures are not limited by size, material, occupancy or construction type.
These Guidelines, which address buildings, including their separate components, should not be used in isolation. There may be heritage value in the relationships between buildings and archaeological sites, landscapes or engineering works, and therefore, those sections of the Guidelines should also be consulted when undertaking a project. The intention is to protect ALL heritage values associated with the historic place.
