Listed buildings are graded in three bands and their definitions are as follows:
- Grade I: 'Buildings are of exceptional interest';
- Grade II*: 'Buildings are particularly important buildings of more than special interest';
- Grade II: 'Buildings are of special interest, warranting every effort to preserve them'.
Definitions are taken from CLG Circular 01/2007: Revision to the Principles of Selection for Listed Buildings
The listing includes any object or structure fixed to the building, and can include certain structures within the curtilage of the building, such as outbuildings or boundary walls.
Within Stafford Borough there are 787 listed buildings of which:
- 18 Grade I (2.3%);
- 57 Grade II* (7.2%; and
- 712 Grade II (90.4).
