Lede
  • "was constructed by the abbot between 1322 and 1335 " -do we have a name for the abbot?
  • "Some restoration has been undertaken during the 20th century." -perhaps be more specific here.
History
  • Glastonbury Lake Village -no article? All capital letters seems strange.
  • "The fish house is now in the care of English Heritage" -since when?
  • Further down you state 1884 for the fire, why not be more specific in the history too?
Architecture
  • Anything about the inner roof beams?

Inconsistency witrh the 1826 plan

[edit]

The central arched door visible in the interior illustration of the text doesn't appear in the 1826 plan (illustration at right): a conjectural restoration made after the fire? Should the text reflect the discrepency?--Wetman (talk) 18:37, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
