Hi Joseph2302, review follows: article created 4 July; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from a spotcheck on the sources; hooks are interesting enough for me, mentioned in the article and checkout to the sources cited; if desired, an alternative hook could be made of the fact that the building dates to 1150 and was in use as a gaol until 1878, which I found interesting; image is appropriate and freely licensed; a QPQ has been carried out. No issues here - Dumelow (talk) 10:56, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
