  • ... that Foxwarren Park (pictured) was the inspiration for Toad Hall, a location for Robin Hood and test site for the bouncing bomb?

Interesting house with history, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and stunning. - You assume readers know Toad Hall? I know Robin Hood, but you might want to link to the TV series, to avoid disappointment ;) . Please help the layout of the article by one or more of the following:
  • write more lead
  • drop the image of the TV show which doesn't show much anyway
  • write more article (you leave me in the dark about the Stuwwelpeter nightmare)
Good luck! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:47, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

I have expanded the article to include details of its ownership by Alfred Ezra – an interesting phase in its history. I have expanded the lead to include this and other details. Andrew D. (talk) 23:07, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Thank you! Offline sources accepted AGF. I trust that you will add a title to ref where it's missing. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:17, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
