... that places of worship on the Isle of Wight include two of England's oldest Roman Catholic churches (one pictured) and several Anglican churches by the "remarkable" architect Thomas Hellyer? Source: See comments below
Comment: Alternative hooks welcome. The list was moved to mainspace on 26th July with
this edit. Thomas Hellyer is a new article. The "under construction" tag on the latter will be removed within 24 hours when I have uploaded pics and finished the table. Various sources are available for the "earliness" of the two churches, but Lloyd & Pevsner (2006) p.176 is as good as any and I have cited the specific sentence in the lead with that. "Remarkable" is a Lloyd & Pevsner quote (p.51), cited accordingly in both articles.

This looks like an act of love, on plenty of official sources, offline sources accepted AGF, well illustrated, no copyvio obvious. Thank you for the ALTs! The prep builder may decide. The image is licensed and a good illustration. I shortened the caption. - Article: In the table, I wonder why the location after which it seems sorted doesn't appear in the first column. I'd give a broader column width to the description, to avoid white space in the other columns. --
