Brentwood is noted for its 13 conservation areas, more than 500 listed buildings and several scheduled monuments. However, there are many other locally important heritage assets and features that do not meet the strict criteria for national designation but hold local and cultural significance.

Brentwood Borough Council has agreed to add to the Brentwood Local Heritage List, the purpose of which is to raise awareness of the area's local heritage and local distinctiveness.

The list can inform developers and owners about buildings and features within the borough that are desirable to retain and protect.
