 * Comment. I think this might benefit from being rotated very slightly anticlockwise so that the tower appears more precisely vertical. 86.171.43.186 (talk) 04:21, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your comment. I've had a go at this, however the tower itself is not vertical - this is why strainer/scissor arches were added to the cathedral in the 14th century when it began to subside. I would welcome the comments/edits of others but if I make one side of the tower vertical, the other side and the rest of the building look out of true.&mdash; Rod talk 08:33, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Any lack of verticality is much more noticeable in the tower than in other parts of the building, so I would normally say try to make the tower overall look as vertical as possible. However, if the tower deviates noticeably from the vertical in real life then obviously that changes everything. In that case a note in the caption would seem desirable. 86.167.19.208 (talk) 18:33, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I've tweaked it a bit in edit 1. It's not that obvious on looking at it (unlike Church of St Mary and All Saints, Chesterfield and similar). The subsidence and reinforcement is explained on Wells Cathedral where it is used.&mdash; Rod talk 21:06, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
