  • Beautiful, we do need more articles like this on historic shops. Article is well illustrated and written, with sufficient length, and was expanded 5x within date. I've linked Good Friday in the hook. The hook is cited to an offline reference taken in good faith. Gareth E Kegg (talk) 01:20, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
  • While it's an interesting article, DYKcheck gives the total prose characters at 1451, short of the absolute minimum 1500 required for all DYK articles, whether new or expanded. Two enormous blockquotes are not given inline source citations and absolutely must be. Have struck the suggestion of holding until Good Friday 2014, as six weeks is the maximum hold time for DYKs (with the sole special exception of April Fools).

  • Thank you. I didn't quite calculate the length properly. I learn the DYK process anew every time. Gareth E Kegg (talk) 10:12, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
  • Article is now at 1575 characters --Esemono (talk) 04:15, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
  • This article is now long enough and fulfils the DYK criteria of length and newness. The hook is sourced to an offline source and the image is in the public domain. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:55, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
