which tense?
Hi Folks,
Just wondering about this sentence that I've written.
What tense is this?
The hotel had been built during a significant time in history.
...had been built....
Is this past perfect?
I know it's not perfect continuous...
I don't know why this is confusing?
Thanks

Thanks Mr M.
I think I got confused because of 'been'.
Looks like I was right though, and yes, I can see it's the passive version.
