The Abercrombie redevelopment

Currently the post-WW2 reconstruction is mentioned twice, once under "Plan for Plymouth 1943" and again under "Urban form". I was thinking about ading more material on this subject and, without any advice to the contrary, I'd probably start by moving the two sections together. What do others think though? Is it ok to rearrange the article to bring the reconstruction material together or is it better to leave it as it is? --Northernhenge (talk) 21:23, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
