Fact:
one historic monument has been lost every day since the end of World
War Two.
This
disturbing statistic is a sad reflection on the state of the nation's
heritage, but there are people out there attempting to reverse this
trend and rescue our most treasured architectural and historic landmarks
from dereliction.

BBC
TWO offers viewers a chance to join the Restoration campaign.
Comedian
and active conservationist, Griff Rhys Jones asks viewers to vote
for and then help save one of 21 of our most endangered buildings.
Each
programme will focus on three endangered properties in one area,
then offer viewers the chance to vote for the building they would
most like to see restored.
Each
of the regional winners will go forward to the Live Final, a spectacular
celebration of the nation's heritage, and the moment when one property
is voted as the most worthy of Restoration.
