I'll have this done by tomorrow JAGUAR 17:28, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
Initial comments[edit]
- The first paragraph of the lead should be expanded a little if possible, so that both paragraphs of the lead are of even size (per WP:LEAD)
- "The house was built in the early 14th century by Muchelney Abbey to house the parish priest" - I'd re-word this to nearby Muchelney Abbey as at first it sounded like the Abbey built it!
- "Over the centuries it deteriorated and was adapted for use as a school and then rented as storage by a farmer" - I would mention that it was rented to a farmer in the late 19th century, as it sounded like it was still rented by a farmer
- "The National Trust rent it to a tenant who provides limited access to the public" - this sentence should be merged with the last one in the history section, to create a better flow of prose. Also, it might sound better with it opening as Today the National Trust rent...?
- "The two-storey thatched hall house is made local stone with hamstone dressings" - "made of local stone"
References[edit]
- Ref 4 is dead, since this is used at least four times in this article it is important to archive or replace it
On hold[edit]
This is a nice little article. It is well researched and the only issues I could find with it was the organisation of the lead and one dead ref that seemed important. Once they're all clarified then this should have no problem passing JAGUAR 17:12, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
