To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what steps her Department is taking to bring Rectory Farm Cottage in Huntingdon constituency back into habitable condition.
- Answer

Rectory Farm Cottage in Abbots Ripton, Huntingdonshire is a Grade II listed building (entry number 1309586 on the National Heritage List for England).
There is no specific duty on owners to keep their listed buildings in a good state of repair, but local authorities have powers to take action where a designated heritage asset has deteriorated to the extent that its preservation may be at risk.
Neither DCMS or our statutory heritage advisor Historic England, have received any information regarding the property or its current state of repair.
