Overall a pretty solid piece of work on a pretty minor fortification. Just a few small issues that I can see:

  • In the first paragraph you repeat "modest" twice in two sentences, could one of these been changed to avoid the repetition?
  • "25 metres (82 ft)-wide moat" I think that using {{convert|25|m|adj=mid|-wide}} or {{convert|25|m|adj=on}} would work better, creating "25-metre-wide (82 ft) moat" or "25-metre (82 ft) wide moat".
It seems to need to be {{convert|25|m|ft|adj=mid|-wide}} to work, and I've amended accordingly. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:59, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • "..has been heavily effected by.." Should be "affected" not "effected".
  • "..by coastal erosion - the local.." The hyphen should probably be an emdash to match the one a little later in the sentence.
  • Journals (Kenyon and Walton) should still have ISSN or ISBN numbers to use.
