Architectural anachronism[edit]

The current building, which was designed in a Georgian style.... was completed in 1696".

This reads anachronistically - George I did not become king until 1714 nearly 20 years later. The building was completed during the reign of William III, whose sister-in-law Queen Anne continued the Stuart dynasty on the throne in the meantime after William's death in 1702. Another style description is in order; I have deleted the Georgian description only because the citation does not use the term.Cloptonson (talk) 10:30, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
