Churches in a Landscape
The eight pinnacles of the tower of St John the Baptist church, Great Hale; and beyond it the Spire of St.Andrew's church, Heckington
It is a theory of mine that one purpose of church towers, spires, and pinnacles was for navigation in the landscape as much as for the glory of God or the donors. This theory is refined by the various civic towers in Europe, which like our churches come in a huge variety of styles.
The earliest Ordnance Survey maps carefully differentiated spires from tower just for the purpose of fixing one's position.
