Preservation process of applying measures necessary to sustain the existing form, integrity, and materials of an historic property. Work, including preliminary measures to protect and stabilize the property, generally focuses upon the ongoing maintenance and repair of historic materials and features rather than extensive replacement and new construction. New exterior additions are not within the scope of this treatment; however, the limited and sensitive upgrading of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems and other code-required work to make properties functional is appropriate within a preservation project.

Standards for Preservation
The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The replacement of intact or repairable historic materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided.
Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Work needed to stabilize, consolidate and conserve existing historic materials and features will be physically and visually compatible, identifiable upon close inspection, and properly documented for future research.

The existing condition of historic features will be evaluated to determine the appropriate level of intervention needed. Where the severity of deterioration requires repair or limited replacement of a distinctive feature, the new material will match the old in composition, design, color and texture
This site is an area where the Belanda soldiers placed cannons to be used during battle. The wall that has former cannon holes that are said to be former Dutch relics has never been modified since long ago but the wall was only repainted to look like new and the bricks used to make the wall are still the same in the time of Princess Hang Li Poh
Puteri Hang Li Poh's well has not undergone renovation because the materials used to make it are still the same as before because they still want to preserve the old materials to be used as a historical reference material in the Bukit Cina area.
