There are eighty Grade II* listed buildings in North Somerset, a unitary authority in the ceremonial county of Somerset, England. In the United Kingdom, the term listed building refers to a building or other structure officially designated as being of special architectural, historical or cultural significance; Grade II* structures are those considered to be "particularly significant buildings of more than local interest". The oldest in North Somerset are Norman churches. From the Middle Ages onward there are more churches and some manor houses, such as Tyntesfield, Clevedon Court and Leigh Court, with their ancillary buildings. More recent entries include Birnbeck Pier (pictured), which was designed by Eugenius Birch and opened in 1867, and the Waterworks at Blagdon, which were completed in 1905. (Full list...)
