Scottish Listed Buildings: It's Category Not Grade

In Scotland, listed buildings have Categories, not Grades.
So it's Category A, B or C, NOT Grade A, B or C.
It's surprising how many people don't know that.

@PastGlasgow @thevicsoc Also even if it was the right building, it’s Category B, not Grade B.

There’s no such thing as a Grade 2 listed building in Scotland - we have Categories of listing, not Grades. The building that burnt down was Category B. Find out more about the different categories & what they represent:

The Forsyth building, an iconic Grade-B listed structure in the heart of Glasgow, has been burnt to the ground, after a fire started in a nearby vape shop.

A historic building has been completely destroyed as a direct result of third-world invaders selling dodgy vapes under the counter.

British heritage destroyed, all for the sake of Muhammad and Umar making a couple of quid. They must all leave.

@TheBEFS @burrellcollect It’s not Grade A listed - it’s *Category* A listed!

@FgottenRelics @NationalHways Category A, not Grade A listed

[Scottish Listed Buildings: It's Category Not Grade @Its_Category]

@severincarrell @scotgov Perhaps you could please correct the article - Lion Chambers is a *Category* A listed building- we don’t use Grades in Scotland.

[Scottish Listed Buildings: It's Category Not Grade @Its_Category]

@TheatresTrust @APAWhatsOn It’s *Category* A listed, not Grade. We don’t have Grades in Scotland; we have Categories of listing.

[Scottish Listed Buildings: It's Category Not Grade @Its_Category]

@NatChurchTrust @HistChurchScot It’s not Grade B - it’s Category B.

@21212Edinburgh Glad to be of assistance!
And you’re not looking after the building for anyone other than yourself so keep up the good work 👍
