This article is in good shape. Just a few comments from me:

  • in the lead, given the number of William's, "William's heir" is a bit sketchy, I'd suggest "The fourth earl", assuming that is correct
  • I've gone for a variant - see what you think. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:23, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • the use of bolding of bailey gate in the lead is not per MOS:BOLD, as it is not a synonym. Unless there is another MOS reason for its bolding I recommend unbolding it
  • that is a redirect rather than an article. Bolding in the lead is limited to synonyms, and the bailey gate isn't a synonym for Castle Arce Castle and town walls, it is a subset of it.
  • the footnote in the lead is unnecessary, as the quote is footnoted in the body
  • Direct quotes and stats in the lead are normally referenced - although other information doesn't need to be. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:40, 14 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Earl of Leicester is overlinked
  • Fixed. ~~
  • suggest "William gave the St Mary's"
  • suggest removing the initial cap from Duke in "backed the Duke" as it is not a formal title, we know who is being referred to, there is another example
  • suggest linking Disseisor
  • do you mean "the Peddars Way was redirected"?
  • "Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, the Duke of Norfolk" the last bit seems unnecessary
  • Town walls. is an incomplete sentence fragment

  • the isbn's are inconsistent, some contain hyphens, some do not
