  • "Part of its length was known in the 13th century" -do we know which part?
Another source says it was a name of the whole street generally, so I've copyedited this Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:17, 6 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Link Civil War in first instance, remove in modern times section?

  • In the Somserset House paragraph can you reword a few examples of "house", it is repeated quite a lot.

  • " King's College Hospital opened in 1840, and the college became a constituent college of the University of London in 1908. " -shouldn't the latter part of this follow on from where you mention the college rather than the hospital?
I think the confusion here is where "college" refers to the term generally, and of the formation of an integrated University of London, reworded. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:17, 6 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Ritchie333: Can see little wrong with it, will pass once addressed.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:37, 5 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. Doubtless the masses will descend and copyedit it if it hits DYK, but that's not actually a bad thing. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:17, 6 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
