The home which belonged to William Shakespeare's family is now at risk after being hit by a car.
Hall's Croft in Stratford-Upon-Avon was home to the playwright's first child Susanna, who lived there with her husband John Hall - as well as the last living descendant of Shakespeare, Elizabeth Bernard.
The Grade I-listed structure was reversed into by a car in October 2025, causing "substantial damage" to one wall and exposing antique timbers to the elements.
Historic England has now placed the 400-year-old building onto its official Heritage At Risk register.
The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, an organisation which preserves Shakespearean heritage in Stratford-Upon-Avon, has pledged to have it removed from the register and restore the home.
Rachael North, chief executive of the trust, said: "Hall’s Croft is a building of exceptional historical importance, and its condition demands a serious and sustained response.
"We take seriously our responsibility to care for this inheritance, so that it can continue to inspire curiosity, connection and understanding for generations to come."
The charity has already started work on a £1million conservation effort to stabilise the building.

An extensive restoration, however, could cost up to £10million and involve replacing the roof.
Historic England will monitor the work to preserve the site after it was added to the annually-updated list.
Last year, notable sites added to the list included the hut where the first ever vaccination was performed and a Roman heating system on the Isle of Wight.
The quango delivers grants to preservation and conservation projects to Grade I and II listed buildings, last year contributing £7.4million to 123 entries.

Last month, an 18th-century hospital on the register was awarded a total of £5million in funding.
Susanna Hall was the elder sister to Shakespeare's twins Judith and Hamnet - whose death inspired the play Hamlet and more recently an Oscar-winning film.
She lived at the home for about three years before the death of her father in 1616, after which she moved to his main house New Place and took most of Hall's Croft's original furniture with her.
The home became a boarding school in the 19th century, after which it went through a series of owners, eventually being sold to the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust in 1949.

Susanna's daughter Elizabeth was the only grannddaughter the bard met before his death, who in her second marriage wed Sir John Bernard.
Their family home, Abington Park in Northampton, is now a museum and public park.
Deborah Williams, regional director of the Midlands for Historic England, said: "Halls Croft is an internationally significant building and adding it to the Heritage at Risk Register is a positive first step in helping bring the building back into use.
"Shakespeare Birthplace Trust take their role as custodians of this shared history very seriously and they understand that being added to the at-risk register is the first step on the journey to be removed from it."
