Talk:Vicars' Close, Wells

Orientation
V interesting page, well done. You talk about it looking longer/shorter depending on whether it is veiwed from the top/bottom, but the photo is captioned 'looking south' Is this looking from the top to the bottom, or from the bottom to the top? 86.147.160.236 (talk) 11:29, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I used 'nearest the cathedral' in place of 'bottom'. --Derek Andrews (talk) 22:17, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi - another question - did your use of 'top' and 'bottom' suggest that the ground is sloping? I can't really tell from the photo. 86.147.160.236 (talk) 08:46, 16 March 2009 (UTC)


 * That actually came from what I copied over from Wells to start the article. But yes, it rises away from the cathedral. My recollection was that it is not much, but the OS map shows a 5m rise. --Derek Andrews (talk) 10:25, 16 March 2009 (UTC)


 * This photo in commons shows the roofs stepping up, something I hadn't noticed before. --Derek Andrews (talk) 10:29, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
