  • This actually falls just below the 1,500 minimum, but by so little I would consider WP:IAR, though a promoter may disagree. From the sources it looks there might be more you could add on the archaeological excavations for example, just to flesh this out and to put it beyond question? The image looks fine for use. Most of the hook points are cited, with the exception of the murder-hole. I can see it in some of the sources used, but could you make the cite explicit? The boathouse is not mentioned in the cite given for it, it calls it a 'boatbay' and one of the other sources states that there's a structure "once thought to be a boathouse" which implies that it does not have a boathouse. The date is fine though incidentally. Benea (talk) 14:54, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
  • Comfortably passes with the size requirements after the expansion now, 'boatbay' removes that issue, and all parts are cited now. I think this should be good to go. Benea (talk) 18:56, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
