Starting first read-through. More anon. Tim riley talk 20:01, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
Preliminary digression, as one whose family home was in Keswick, Cumbria I take a dim view of other Cheese Farms muscling in, but yours, irritatingly, seems to have got in first. I shall try not to let this prejudice me.

Thanks Tim! Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:49, 2 July 2022 (UTC)


### Comments
Nothing to frighten the horses, and certainly not worth formally putting the review on hold for.

Lead
"The street still floods on high spring tides" – this isn't mentioned in the body of the text, and according to WP:LEAD there didn't oughter be anything in the lead that isn't in the main text.
Added to Geography, and cited.
St Nicholas Church
dates from 1882-4 – needs attention from the MoS point of view: full four-figure years and an en-dash rather than a hyphen.
Format is now pukka.
except for the surviving west tower which was built for William Bordall – could do with a comma after tower, to make the clause non-restrictive (i.e. descriptive rather than defining) otherwise there is the theoretical possibility that there are other surviving west towers that were built for someone else. Yes, I know, but it's as well to be as precise as possible,
Added.
and an exceptional one in the south chapel – who says it is exceptional?
Historic England (aka English Heritage), the citation immediately following; they call it "a very fine monument". Allowing for the dry style of official listings, a jaundiced eye, and English understatement, that is a truly exceptional heap of praise. Repeated the ref just in case.
Industry
"drawdock" could do with a blue-link or explanation.
Linked.
Chiswick New Town
north-westwards – but you don't hyphenate southeast, southwest and northeast earlier. Either is fine, but it would be as well to be consistent.
Fixed.
Try as I may, that is all I can find to complain about.	Over to you. Tim riley talk 20:35, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Many thanks, Tim, I'm glad you liked it! I shall expect an article on Old Keswick very soon! Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:49, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
All fine now, and completely up to GA standard in every respect, in my view (and a thoroughly enjoyable read), so...
