Nice image and well converted the B+W is very natural-if I can say that? As Poilu says it would be good to see some with the sf on to give a comparison but the lens looks pretty good so far  |

I really like this photograph, it makes me stare at it and wonder what the surroundings were like. It is timeless, for some reason to me it feels like it was taken in the 1800's. This may be a good one to sepia tone.
Congrats on the lens, keep putting it to good use!

Thanks, the location was at the back of a church. Perhaps I should add some film grain.

In my strong, biased and strictly personal opinion: No!
Digital B&W is another medium than film B&W. Trying to emulate film by photoshopping film grain into a digital picture is one of the worst things you can do, in my opinion.
Film has grain, which can add or distract from the picture. Digital has noise, which again can add or distract from the picture. If the noise bothers you, by all means take it out.
However, in digital B&W I often just leave the noise there, because it doesn't bother me. It looks very different from film grain, but again, it's a different medium.
DPP RAW / monochrome picture style, no noise reduction
Of course, it's your image, so you should do what you like best
