How to find what is scheduled


There are two ways to locate scheduled monuments:

Search by keyword, name, council, classification

- Use keywords in the name, council and 'class' (a rough categorisation of type of monument)

Search by map on PASTMAP

  • Displays the boundaries of scheduled monuments; download copies of legal schedules.
  • Search by zooming into the map, selecting from a list of place names or by using postcodes.

PASTMAP is a website where you can display and search information on Scotland's historic environment.

  • Designated Sites (Historic Scotland):
    • scheduled monuments
    • listed buildings
    • Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes
    • designated wreck sites

  • National and local records of sites
    • The database of the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland (RCAHMS), one of Scotland’s National Collections
    • Sites and Monuments Records / Historic Environment Records (from select local authorities)
Scheduling documents are also available to anyone searching the Register of Sasines or the Land Register for the title to a property.

Please note that scheduling gives no rights of public access. Nor does it change the wide-ranging provisions for public access in the Scottish Outdoor Access Code. Members of the public, and this includes archaeology students or professionals, should always seek permission from the owner and/or occupier in the normal way.
