Grade I Listed
The National Heritage List for England (NHLE) includes buildings, scheduling monuments, registering parks, gardens and battlefields, and wreck sites - which are of special interest (cultural, historical, architectural etc) nationally. Inclusion on the list provides legal protection to the building or site to make sure that any future changes to it do not result in the loss of its significance. Grade I listed buildings are of exceptional interest. They make up 2.5% of buildings in the National Heritage List for England: http://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/
