The windmill at Werrington

... that the windmill in Werrington was built to grind corn but later converted to grind coal into briquettes? Source: "Towards the end of its life it was used for the grinding of coal to make briquette." (Werrington etc and Wetley Moor also Werrington Shortly after the start of The Millennium)

Comment: Perhaps the telecommunications tower has ruined the view of the windmill in this picture

The windmill at Werrington

Not a review but perhaps this is a better photo to illustrate the mill? - Dumelow (talk) 10:02, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes that's much better, thank you. Echetus Xe 10:30, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Full review:
Y Article has been 5x expanded according to DYKcheck, is long enough (7950 characters), and article is within policy
? Hook is short enough and interesting. But is [1] a reliable source? It's a page hosted on a blog site
Y QPQ done
? The image is freely licenced (UK has freedom of panorama), and looks good at low resolution. However, DYK says that images must be used in the article- this can be achieved by adding it to the article either as another image, or replacing the other article in the infobox
Overall, the article looks decent, just a couple of issues to resolve. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:54, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Added the picture to the article now. Here is another source for the hook. This has more detail but is also a blog. Echetus Xe 13:40, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Those sources look okay to me, article is good to go now. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:40, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
