As was the case for the previous chapel I reviewed, this article is excellent. It is well-written and referenced, neutral, stable, and the image is in order. I will pass it now, but have some minor queries:

• the article says "there is a rounded arch doorway set deep into the thick wall, possibly dating from the 14th century". Was this intended to indicate that either the arch or the wall were 14th century, or both?
• Not sure if there is a simple way of improving the following sentence so "side" is not repeated: "There are no windows on the south side, which is the most exposed side." Perhaps "There are no windows in the south wall, which is the most exposed side."?
• "The communion rails are dated 1764 and is of a simple design" - are there rails plural (are of simple design), or one rail?

Were this FA rather than GA, one thing I would want, if possible, is the period / reason for the disappearance of the village. At present the article has information on village size pre-Black Death, but that doesn't mean the plague was the reason for the village's demise. If that could be clarified or expanded, that would be good. If there was information on its last priest / minister was before being made redundant (the church, not the pastor!), that could also be useful.
Good work. hamiltonstone (talk) 03:44, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
