Ancient Monuments Protection Act 1882
- Ancient Monuments Protection Act 1882
The United Kingdom's Ancient Monuments Protection Act 1882, introduced by Sir John Lubbock, 1st Baronet, recognising the need for a governmental administration on the protection of ancient monuments, was finally passed after a number of failed attempts on heritage protection acts. The gradual change towards a state-based authority responsible for the safeguarding of the Kingdom's national heritage manifested itself through the appointment of the first Inspector of Ancient Monuments in 1893, General Pitt-Rivers.
