Abstract

ABSTRACT UNESCO’s inscription of ‘The Slate Landscape of Northwest Wales’ as a World Heritage Site in 2021 added for the first time a cultural landscape of quarrying to the World Heritage list, the culmination of a 12-year bid process for Gwynedd Council as the promoting local authority. Its six Component Parts exhibit clear visual and functional relationships with the wider landscape of Snowdonia and the sea, but also significant differences in terms of extraction, processing, workers’ settlements and transport. These were described and analysed in a well-produced dossier informed by a comprehensive comparative study, which set out how Wales’ robust systems of landscape protection ensured their effective management, and made clear the strong political, business and community support which the bid enjoyed, based on clear goals and ambitions. Inscription makes clear that there is a strong case for other globally significant quarrying landscapes to become World Heritage Sites.

“威尔士西北部板岩景观”——新的世界工业遗产

摘要联合国教科文组织于2021年将“威尔士西北部板岩景观”列为世界遗产，首次将采石文化景观列入世界遗产名录，这是格温妮德理事会作为推广地方当局12年申办过程的高潮。它的六个组成部分与斯诺登尼亚和海洋的广阔景观呈现出清晰的视觉和功能关系，但在提取、加工、工人安置和运输方面也存在显著差异。根据一项全面的比较研究，在一份制作精良的档案中对这些情况进行了描述和分析，该档案阐述了威尔士强大的景观保护系统如何确保其有效管理，并明确了基于明确的目标和抱负，申办获得了强大的政治、商业和社区支持。铭文清楚地表明，其他具有全球意义的采石景观有充分的理由成为世界遗产。
