... that the old Ashford railway works is being redeveloped into Ashford International Studios? Source: "The development of the Ashford International Film Studios has been given a significant boost. Ashford Borough Council has agreed to loan the set-up £50 million to develop the old Newtown Works which were used as railway sheds until 30 years ago."[1]
Overall: Article meets eligibility requirements. No concerns with copyvio. QPQ done. Can the editor have a look at the article structure. The entire article is under the "History" section. At the minimum that can be edited. Anything that can be done to expand the article? Re: the hook, I want to defer to the nominator to see if this is the most interesting fact? If there is a way to tweak the hook, I think that would be good. Handing it back to the nominator. Ktin (talk) 18:50, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
I can't think of anything else to cite from the sources in the article (a search for others returns information already present) and I can't think of a more suitable hook. As time passes, the article should be expanded once the studios open and production ramps up, but Wikipedia isn't a crystal ball so we can't add anything like that at present.

Marking this approved with two points of note. a) Deferring to the nominator on the interestingness of this hook. b) Not a fan of the entire article under the "history" head. Seems like that part can definitely be improved. Irrespective, I am marking this approved with the above observations. Good to go. Ktin (talk) 02:38, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
