Just house, not "and Chapel"

edit

The following is a refactored extract from my talk page (now archived) regarding this article:

Tomago House itself is well known but there is very little at the house that even mentions the chapel, which is not even on the same block of land. The house was open to the public but the chapel is now behind a locked gate down the main road. You have to leave Tomago House, drive 450m down the road and park on the side of the road where you can see the chapel in the distance, but can't get to it without trespassing. There is never going to be an article on the chapel itself. It's simply not notable enough.

Note that the NSW state heritage register lists Tomago House and the nearby chapel as "Tomago House & Tomago Chapel", not as "Tomago House and Chapel". They are not at all known as "Tomago House and Chapel" so listing them as that is incorrect. The chapel was built originally as part of the house, not as a separate entity and it is known as that. The National Trust, which manages the site, also identifies the two as "Tomago House" and "Tomago House Chapel", i.e. two separate entities. Even the signs on the fences state this. --AussieLegend () 15:17, 27 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
