Royal Oak, Frindsbury edit
The Royal Oak public house in 2009
- ... that the Royal Oak, Frindsbury (pictured), a 17th-century public house in England, was recently threatened with demolition, but has now been Grade II listed?
- ALT1:... that the Royal Oak, Frindsbury (pictured), a 17th-century public house in England, is rumoured to contain a timber from HMS Royal Oak?
- Comment: A new article created today. I'm not sure what the best hook would be - the connection to the HMS Royal Oak is probably the most interesting, but may just be a local rumour. The demolition threat and recent listed building status may be a bit too recent/news-y. Alt hooks would be welcome. :-) Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 18:53, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Mike Peel we need a QPQ from you. My only suggestion would be to perhaps link "public house", because outside of England, people might not know you are referring to a pub. I also agree that ALT1 is the more interesting hook. — Maile (talk) 21:35, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks @Maile66: for the review! I've reviewed another nomination now, link added, sorry for the delay (real life intervened). I've also added the link to public house. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 22:42, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
Nomination passes now that QPQ has been done. Good job. — Maile (talk) 22:47, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
