Listed buildings in GloucesterHello Phil, and compliments of the season. I've been adding a few images to Grade I listed buildings in Gloucester and Grade II* listed buildings in Gloucester, many of them yours for which many thanks. We are now short of only one, a Boundary Wall at Blackfriars, Gloucester. It looks like this, [1]. You don't happen to have a shot of it in your collection? I've gone through Commons and Geograph and haven't been able to find it, though it's quite possible I've missed one. If you have, and were able to upload, it would be much appreciated. Best regards.

Sorry this particular DYK has turned into such a saga. Cielquiparle (talk) 12:27, 14 January 2023 (UTC) New revised hook for CharlesI have proposed yet another hook for Charles Wolley-Dod, here. I really wanted that last hook you wrote to work out...but my thinking now is that it's never worth stating a physical distance in a DYK hook, unless it's absolutely so critical to the story that all the baggage of extra words (units of measurement, conversions, qualifying words) and extra arguments (with map geeks, armchair detectives, conspiracy theorists, measuring-tape lovers, conversion calculators, lawyers, nearly all of which I'm sure I've been at some point in my life before) is worth it. And that we were likely to keep having the same argument a few more times. Anyway thank you so much for all your help, and apologies for not resolving this as efficiently as I could have, also on behalf of everyone who got a bit overexcited about the mystery.
