Burstow and Queen Victoria edit

Something is factually wrong here. Queen Victoria didn't become queen until 1837, so an archway with "Victoria Regina" in 1824 would obviously not exist. PeterSymonds (talk) 09:53, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

As this has not been corrected, I have removed the paragraph discussing this. Feel free to add it back with any corrected information. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 12:07, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
