It is accepted that what follows the semi-colon should be a somewhat related clause and should be a full fledged one with it is own subject and verb.
A. arguably the best-preserved medieval town in Scandinavia, and has become a World Heritage Site……. Lacks subject- hence wrong
B. it is arguably the best-preserved medieval town in Scandinavia, and, as a result of this, has become a World Heritage Site. ….. It may be grammatically correct but the expression 'as a result of this' is not intended in the original. Ther is no cause and effect relationship between the two factors; the intent is distorted and hence wrong.
C. arguably the best-preserved medieval town in Scandinavia, it has become a World Heritage Site. …..Many might think that this is not a full clause. Sorry! The second part is a full fledged clause with the participial modifier ‘arguably the best-preserved medieval town in Scandinavia’ modifying the clause starting with ‘it has become’.The pronoun it can not logically refer to Gotland, the island, because Gotland is not a town. Right Choice
D. it has become a World Heritage Site, and arguably the best-preserved medieval town in Scandinavia. ….. Grammatically wrong. There is no proper subject for the second part of the clause that follows the conjunction ‘and’. It can not take ‘it has become’ as the elliptical subject and verb. Such an assumption renders the clause meaningless.
E. is arguably the best-preserved medieval town in Scandinavia, a World Heritage Site. ……. Lacks a subject. Secondly ‘a World Heritage Site’ wrongly modifies Scandinavia.
C is the most precise and structurally correct choice
