Interpretation: working hypotheses
Working hypotheses, kept apart from the record above. The record text on this page is unchanged. None of these is a finding: each line is labelled as inference, theory, a reading that cuts against the case, or a discarded theory, and names the evidence it rests on and what would confirm or refute it, so the reader can test it. Updated 25 Oct 2026 (v2: ingredients wording).
Demolition, archaeology and the green
THEORY · H-02Ground R7: the 1988 demolition, the missing 1988 Cadw file and the official answers that files "would have been destroyed". Working hypothesis: these raise questions about how the listing request was handled. Cuts against as a reopening ground: the events came after the 31 Jul 1987 judgment, so they cannot have caused it.
Rests on: EV-0081 · EV-0094 (this page) · EV-0095 · EV-0096 · EV-0106 · EV-0118 · ground R7; research log E122
Would be confirmed by: The Welsh Office / Cadw 1988 file or its destruction record.
