Grade I listed buildings in England completed in the 20th century


I've listed this article for peer review because... I'm thinking of trying it out at Featured list candidates and I'd very much appreciate some additional eyes on it. It grew quite a bit from the original bullet list, and I think it's now comprehensive, apart from an irritating red-link and a couple of missing images. Thoughts on the table, the introductory paragraphs, and indeed anything else, would be most welcome.

KJP1, I've just clocked this. A delightful piece of work and a pleasure to pick one's way through. There is much fun to be had from tut-tutting at the inclusion of buildings that would be better dynamited (such as the Festival Hall) and at the scandalous omission of one's favourites. Be that as it may, my only substantial comment is that I can't work out your thinking as regards the order of the listings. I know the table is sortable, but even so, a default order might be expected to follow either alphabetical or chronological order (of completion or listing) within the various sub-categories. Am I missing something? (Wouldn't be the first time, of course.) A more minor point is that there's a bit of in-and-out running as regards addresses. Why, for instance, in my native city does the Liver Building get details of its address but the Cathedral is just "Liverpool"? Not a matter of huge importance, but I'm all for consistency when it's conveniently possible.  Tim riley  talk   14:35, 7 March 2024 (UTC)


 * - I'd totally forgotten I've even put this here! I'm glad it gave pleasure. You're absolutely right - there is no real order. I didn't start it from scratch, and added things rather randomly. Then I thought it should have some order, and grouped: cathedrals/churches/war memorials/country houses/lots of random others, etc. But I didn't do that thoroughly. What would be best - strictly chronological, or chronological within groups? I'll pick up the addresses as I go. KJP1 (talk) 06:05, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * So, I've gone chronologically, within groups, those being: Cathedrals / Churches / War Memorials / Other Memorials / Houses / Other. Does that make more sense? Or not?! Have also tried to tidy/standardise the addresses. Thanks muchly for taking a look. KJP1 (talk) 09:05, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Splendid stuff! I've just noticed that the date ranges need a bit of work. The manual of style decrees, or did when last I looked, that we don't put 1993–96 but drag the second date out: 1993–1996.  Tim riley  talk   13:24, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Bloody MoS! I shall get right on to it. KJP1 (talk) 13:33, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * And now done. Whatever you think about Leslie Martin's effort, I'm sure you're pleased to see Liverpool Cathedral and the British Library on the list. What would you have put in that's not currently there? KJP1 (talk) 13:52, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I love Liverpool Cathedral above most others. (Lincoln, perhaps, or Rheims might almost pip it to the post for me.) I used to look out of my school windows and watch the place being built. The BL is no thing of beauty, but I wouldn't be without it for an instant. As to the Festival Hall, I don't mind its outward appearance, and inside it's rather a nice environment, but it's the damnable acoustics I object to. They were going to rebuild the Queen's Hall after the war, but Herbert Morrison's vanity project left us stuck with the RFH instead, blast it!  Tim riley  talk   14:18, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * But to answer your question, I'd put the Barbican, Paddy's Wigwam, Cockfosters and Gants Hill tube stations, Guildford Cathedral and Battersea power station in the top bracket. Et toi?  Tim riley  talk   18:25, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Well not Paddy's Wigwam! Lutyen's ziggurat, would have been a great improvement. KJP1 (talk) 11:35, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

It's been a while since I did anything on a list page, so I may be a bit rusty, but I'll chip in shortly. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 19:02, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
