QPQ: Done.

Overall: It's not clear that File:A View of the Marquis of Caernarvon's Seat at Southgate.jpg (or the adapted version used in the hook) actually depicts Minchington Hall; the Marquis of Caernarvon is not mentioned in the article. Also, the hooks need "(pictured)" adding. I reckon ALT1 is more interesting than ALT0. — Bilorv_(c)(talk) 18:51, 5 January 2019 (UTC)

Added a modern book ref which confirms the image is of Minchington and a ref for the street. The Marquis of Caernarvon is mentioned in the article. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:55, 5 January 2019 (UTC)

ALT1 approved. I can't access that ref but I'll take it on good faith. Sorry for missing the "James Brydges, Marquess of Carnarvon" bit, but the different spellings threw me. — Bilorv_(c)(talk) 22:47, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
