The main objectives of CAMRA’s Pub Heritage Group are:

• to raise awareness and appreciation of pub interiors of historic and architectural importance
• to support and, if necessary, lead on campaigns to ward off threats of closure or unwanted alterations to pubs with historic interiors
• to seek additional protection for pubs with historic interiors through the planning system
• to scour the country to identify other possible Real Heritage Pubs candidates.

To achieve these objectives we:

• compile and maintain the National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors and Regional Inventories of Historic Pub Interiors
• maintain this website
• use CAMRA publications such as the Good Beer Guide and What’s Brewing to get our messages across
• identify Real Heritage Pubs which are at risk and agree actions to try and protect them
• aim to get as many National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors and Regional Inventories of Historic Pub Interiors pubs as possible Listed
• visit and report on candidates for inclusion on Inventories.

We have a stand at the Great British Beer Festival which always generates a lot of interest. The Real Heritage Pubs display stand is available for use at other beer festivals.
