Potential new article - Herstmonceux

Swept in from the pub

Hi;

I've been slowly adding content to the Hailsham page of late, and wondered if Herstmonceux should have a separate article? It is a different, smaller, settlement, around 4 miles from Hailsham, with its own attractions (and entries for 'Sleep', 'Eat' and 'Drink') - the biggest one being the Castle and Science Centre, which is currently the only 'See' entry for Hailsham (I'm sure I can change this!). If you suggested to a local that Herstmonceux was merely a suburb of Hailsham, you would get pretty short shrift, but I wasn't sure how best to proceed?

Borderline size but if enough attractions, places to sleep and a few restaurants and pubs in the area then yes it could be its own article. Quick look on Google maps would suggest there are enough POIs to make an article. The best way to move forward I suggest is to first add the listing to the Hailsham page, once there are a reasonable number of listings then edit Herstmonceux to remove the redirect and move the relevant listing there. If you need help with the edit and move a simple request here will get someone to jump in and assit. --Traveler100 (talk) 18:54, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
