- Hi Bruxton (talk), review follows: article created 20 February and exceeds minimum length; article is well written; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; hook is interesting enough and the building material checks out to the source cited; couple of queries, if the land for the church was given in 1300 then it is 14th century, not 13th century. Is there a reason you've cited BritishListedBuildings? It looks like it just copies the Historic England list entry, so I think you're better off citing that (no ads, more reliable etc.) - Dumelow (talk) 12:36, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review @Dumelow:. I did the reconfiguring. Bruxton (talk) 15:05, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- Looks fine to me. I changed the hook slightly to "is constructed of" rather than "was", as the latter to me implied all these materials were used in the 14th century, when presumably the slate and bricks are later - Dumelow (talk) 15:29, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
