Article is new enough and long enough. Image is free and good quality. Hook is correctly formatted. Article is well referenced. I detected no close paraphrasing or copy vios. The presence of Saxon stonework is verified by the Historic England reference but the hook claim that the church is the only building in West Sussex to feature Saxon stonework is sourced to the church itself (which is not independent) and the church themselves only claim that the building contains "fragments of Saxon ‘long and short’ work, the only such remains in West Somerset" which seems to be a more narrow claim. One would think that there was some Saxon stonework somewhere else in West Somerset? Philafrenzy (talk) 06:32, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

  • @Philafrenzy: Good catch, I erroneously completely misrepresented the source. I have altered the article slightly, and changed the hook to reflect this. Harrias talk 21:29, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
