Article

I've clarified this in the article with a bit of rewording. Prioryman (talk) 22:39, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The source still doesn't back it up - it says that it was known as Potto Castle in the 13th Century (when it was built a century earlier), not that it was originally known as Potto Castle. Number 57 08:42, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I see what you were getting at now. Forgive my denseness. I've amended the text to resolve this issue. Prioryman (talk) 21:39, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Unless I'm being thick, the reference for it being given listed status in 1928 doesn't actually mention this. Number 57 09:21, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You're quite right, I used the wrong reference - it's this one. I've fixed this now. Prioryman (talk) 18:20, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
OK, now looks good to go! Number 57 20:49, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
