Historic England has emerged from English Heritage. The EH tag is now retained purely for a new independent charity responsible for looking after the National Heritage Collection of some 400 historic terrestrial sites. Maritime administration including, for instance, the designation of protectd marine sites under the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973 and appointment of licensees to manage such sites, comes under the Historic England remit.
