General comments

• Some of this review includes suggested improvements, not required under WP:WIAGA.

Lead

• Add country.
  • Done--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Establishment and dissolution

• wl: fourpence
  • Done--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
• introductory element lacking a subsequent comma - "For most of its existence the college had an establishment of a master and six chaplains"
  • Done--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
• Master's list - there's quite a bit of white space. Consider columns or moving the list into its own section at the end of the article.
  • Done. I have put this into two columns of six items in the original place as I think it works best here.
• Half this section is about the College's history after the dissolution. Either split up the section or rename the header.--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
  • Renamed to just "History"--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
• "...and the college and its lands were sold" - College has been capitalized elsewhere.
  • Done--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
• "Plate and other valuables..." - which plate?
  • Plate in this context means the collection of silverware belonging to the college rather than a single item. I have linked it.--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Buildings

• "a single-storey structure is attached to the south side." - capitalize the 'a'
  • Done--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Notes and reference

• Perhaps rename the header Notes and references
  • Done. Added the missing terminal letter--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Bibliography

• I'd add Hasted
  • Done. I have also added Page to be consistent.--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Some of the best prose I've read in awhile. I'll put this on hold for the usual 7 days. I've watchlisted it, but do ping me when you're ready for me to re-read the article as I'm working on several things at the moment. --Rosiestep (talk) 17:17, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks. I think, I have dealt with these all.--DavidCane (talk) 22:28, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
