English Heritage sites in Somerset edit

English Heritage is an executive non-departmental public body of the Government of the United Kingdom sponsored by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). It acts as the steward of over 400 significant historical and archaeological sites in England. In Somerset there are twelve sites, ranging from Neolithic sites such as Stanton Drew stone circles and Stoney Littleton Long Barrow through medieval castles (Farleigh Hungerford and Nunney Castles) and religious sites such as Cleeve and Muchelney Abbeys to the most recent, Sir Bevil Grenville's Monument, which was erected in 1720.

The List of English Heritage properties in Somerset is an FL which lists all 12 sites that English Heritage manage within the county. Each of the articles about the sites is now a Good Article, therefore I think this meets the requirements for a Good Topic. If a brief description is needed part of the lead from the list could be included, but I am unclear where to put this.— Rod talk 18:37, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - great job! You can just add the introductory paragraph to this page- stick <noinclude>Intro</noinclude> above the topic box on this nomination page, and the closer will put in on the actual topic page when they promote it. --PresN 19:18, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks. I've attempted a short intro paragraph above - if something longer is needed just let me know and I will add to it.— Rod talk 19:32, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note Nominator will be away (at Glastonbury Festival) from 22 to 29 June and will not be able to respond to any comments during this time.— Rod talk 19:42, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Looks pretty open and shut: 12 properties, 12 GAs so my support is unconditional. One thing does occur to me for the FL – would it be worth expanding the introduction? You could discuss when the properties came under EH control and what they've been doing to promote research in the county. Just and idea, and like I said the Topic has my support.

  • Support I've watched this list grow with admiration. A brilliant collection of work, nothing much more to say! Harrias talk 07:34, 3 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 12 properties, all of which are now GA, along with an FL. That's pretty clear cut to me. Miyagawa (talk) 12:03, 3 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - other than the ones I've worked on at GA, which might represent a conflict of interest...! ;) Hchc2009 (talk) 15:14, 3 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
