National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors

[1] The National Inventory was begun by (and was maintained by) the Campaign for Real Ale as part of that organisation's mission to protect Britain's pub heritage as well as good beer.

CAMRA is an independent, voluntary, consumer organisation based in the UK whose main aims are promoting live beer (real ale), cider and perry and thriving pubs and clubs in the community.

[2] Within CAMRA, the "Pub Heritage Group" is established to identify, record and help protect public house interiors of historic and/or architectural importance, and seeks to get them listed, if they are not already.

[4] In 2023, the system was revised and now comprises a single register of 'real heritage pubs' with significant interior features that have remained unaltered for at least 50 years.

[6] CAMRA presents the Pub Design Awards, which are held in association with English Heritage and The Victorian Society.
