So now, for the Birmingham list (first link in the mail below), I added the first few monuments to the Wikidata item for this list here:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6646074

I used "has part"  but maybe there should be a property "list item"  or somesuch thing?

OK I am now looking at your Q number Q5642705 and I see that it is a hall, so I expect it to be an instance of hall, but it's not and it's an instance of architectural structure. This item has an enwiki Wikipedia article and when I click what links here I see the WLM list here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listed_buildings_in_Birmingham
Here I see only 4 columns - name, grade, date and architect

An item that is also a hall in NL is a water board building called a gemeenlandshuis. Here is an example item
This is an instance of gemeenlandshuis which in turn is a subclass of hall.

On the Dutch Wikipedia when I click what links here I see the link to the WLM list here:
This list has eight columns - name, original function, date, architect, location, coordinates, WLM ID, photo

The column headings should be coming from the monuments database, and the original function should be the reason the object made it into the WLM list.

I think both of these items should be part of a corresponding list on Wikidata. When I click what links here on Wikidata I see nothing that takes me to WLM. The only clue is the property P1435 for the British Q and property P359 for the Dutch Q. 

Maybe we should augment the corresponding list items with their members so that when you click what links here you are taken to the Q number of of the list item? This effectively migrates the lists to Wikidata

I believe that method has been deprecated, and it is preferred to use
a property P1435 ("heritage status" in English):

as done, for example, on:
