Initial comments

[edit]
  • "The bridge is in the guardianship of English Heritage" - this is mentioned in the lead but not anywhere else in the article
  • "below 'the castle at a point" - would be better linked fully as Dunster Castle
  • The lead could be expanded slightly in order to summarise the article and comply per WP:LEAD. A little bit more can be mentioned about the bridge's history I think, for example "It was important for the transport of wool and other goods to market" could be expanded a little into how it dates back to 1222 and when the bridge was built etc
  • The Architecture section is a little short to pass the GA criteria, can it at all be expanded? By a sentence or two?

On hold

This is a well researched article and a compact one too. It is well written but I feel that it does not meet the comprehensivness part of the crtiera at this time, so I'll put this on hold until all of the above can be addressed. Thanks! JAGUAR 12:00, 27 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Close - promoted

[edit]

Thank you for taking the time to make improvements to this article, I think the architecture should be fine as I see the rest of the article is well researched and well written, so I think this passes the GA criteria. Well done on the extra work, looks like another Somerset GA! JAGUAR  17:49, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just looked at the picture again and I've crossed this bridge several times! JAGUAR  17:51, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
