Hi Richard,
Please send messages to the list. I'll reply inline.

Is there a way to narrow down which category images
are put into? With
thousands of uploads, even categories such as 'Grade I listed building
in Fooshire' can quickly fill up.
Yes, of course, some listed buildings will
even have their own category.
You can build a whole tree structure for that. We have people and bots
who can help to build such a structure.

Is {{commons category inline}} the template that needs to be used
so the the bot can automatically categorise images? Will {{commons
category}} also work and will it work if a name different to the
page title is specified in the template?
You can use {{Commons category}} on a list page to tell the bot that
everything in the list should go into a certain category on Commons. It
expects one parameter with the name of the category on Commons, I'm not
sure if without parameter works. You can see that in action at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Grade_B%2B_listed_buildings_in_County…
. That will send the images to
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Grade_B%2B_listed_buildings_in_…
.
It's also possible to add the field "commonscat" to a single list entry.
I did that at
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_Grade_B%2B_listed_buildi…
. If someone now uploads a monument with id "HB16/28/018 A", the bot
will put it in
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:ArmaghDown_Bridge,_Newry
Bot will always takes more specific so the logic is: 1. Single row 2.
List page 3. The category the list is in
