Overall: There is a quotation in last para that needs direct sourcing. Template:Infobox building can be used in the article. Rest all seems ok to me. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 11:45, 3 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the review Dharmadhyaksha, I've duplicated the ref for the quote. I must say I am fairly ambiguous on infoboxes in this and similar articles. I don't object if someone else adds them (and they often do so anyway during the DYK appearance) but the effort of doing so doesn't seem worth it here when there would be little to add except construction and listing date, I'd sooner be working on the next article! - Dumelow (talk) 07:00, 4 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

good to go on main page! Both options are good. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 08:17, 4 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
