  • I love rural England, but I'm not sold on the hook. I'm not sure "one of the largest parishes in northern Hampshire" is really something to get excited about! Perhaps something about the village's history, the church, or the name would be more appropriate? Josh Milburn (talk) 19:35, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
  • @Jaguar: I picked this up because it is quite local for me. Certainly a nice little article. GA confirmed, promotion recent. Images properly licensed. Current hook facts verified. As Josh Milburn says, the hook is not great. The fact that is perhaps crying out for inclusion in the hook is that it is the burial place of Monty. Maybe you could do a hook including that?

  • I never knew that! Thanks for letting me know. I've added a sentence regarding the burial site of Montgomery and changed the hook accordingly. J Milburn, how does it look now? JAGUAR  18:56, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
  • I've tweaked the article slightly - Monty was already mentioned under his formal title. Simon Burchell (talk) 19:27, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
  • And in case it's important: No objections from me. Josh Milburn (talk) 22:40, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
