"Grade II* Listed" is a designation in the United Kingdom that identifies buildings of particular historical or architectural significance. This classification is part of the broader system of listing, which categorizes structures into three grades: Grade I, Grade II*, and Grade II. Grade II* buildings are considered to be of more than special interest, representing around 5.5% of all listed buildings. The listing process helps protect these important structures from unauthorized alterations or demolitions. Examples of Grade II* Listed buildings include notable churches, historic homes, and significant public buildings, all of which contribute to the cultural heritage of the UK.
