Leaning tower

Leaning tower
The late 14th century tower of the Church of St Andrews, Burnham on Sea is a grade one listed building It is reputed that a plumb line dropped from the north side of the 78ft high tower is 3 feet from the building at the base, Image taken as the December Sun sets across Bridgwater Bay. Building the church on sand dunes is the most likely reason for the settlement.

Has it been necessary to stabilize the tilting, as at Pisa?
7 years ago.
Roger (Grisly) club has replied to slgwv club
Not that I am aware of, the lean started at the building stage because they attempted to correct it as they went so the tower has a slight curve to it, The majority of windows and doors are still true to vertical.

Excellent light in the low evening sun Roger, I am a huge fan of Bonnie Tyler and would have selected her version of the song, nicely sung by Joe Cocker just the same.

Roger (Grisly) club has replied to HappySnapper
Thank you Maurice, the both have a rasp in the voice but Bonnie Tyler has it visually I agree,
Winter sun is one of the joys of cold weather photography
