John,
As the other gentlemen have indicated, it could benefit from restoration. However,(and unfortunately) since in the UK it would have to be deactivated (if it hasn't been already), I would think that restoration would not be prudent since you would not enhance the value enough to justify the cost of restoration. Perhaps I am wrong and I would appreciate it very much if you would correct me.
Best regards,
Ron
