Journal Article
Is Anyone Minding Stonehenge? The Origins of Cultural Property Protection in England
1990
Overview
This Article is the second in the author's ongoing series of articles on cultural property protection. In this Article, the author examines the genesis of preservation policies in the United Kingdom. The mid- to late eighteenth century witnessed a development boom that threatened many of the ancient ruins of England. Sir John Lubbock introduced a bill in Parliament to provide for the preservation of such ancient monuments. The author traces the history of this bill, thoughtfully exploring the origins of the concepts of cultural heritage property. Specifically, Lubbock's goal was responsible stewardship by proprietors and the government, and his views were eventually vindicated in legislation enacted to protect ancient monuments.
