He added that a steadily increasing number of such buildings is likely to hit the market as savage spending cuts mean their disposal becomes unavoidable.
Other public bodies, such as the NHS, could also increasingly look to heritage asset sales to raise money.
While the government wants community groups to take on the ownership and running of assets formerly owned by councils to prevent them falling into disrepair, in many areas they dont exist, said Ian Lush, chief executive of the Architectural Heritage Fund, which supports local groups. It is a threat because the number of historic buildings which are being declared redundant by public sector owners and this is not just local authorities, but also includes the Ministry of Defence, fire services, health trusts exceeds the number of community groups and commercial developers able to take them on, said Lush.
