Friday My Town Shoot-out - spires, steeples and weathervanes.



As usual I have been very naughty and interpreted 'My Town' as virtually the whole of mainland Britain though the above one is just down the road - at Eastham on the Wirral.  Hopefully my cheating will be forgiven.  As can be told by the state of some of the photos they are from my archives asnd the dirty appearance of some is because they were scanned in from slides and I failed to clean the slides properly.  Silly me.


This one is My Town - Liverpool.


Exeter Cathedral in Devon has lots of towers and spires. 


This little church is at Altcar on Merseyside, not far from Liverpool.


Another Wirral church - Capenhurst.



This slide is labelled as Deerhurst Church in Gloucestershire but it isn't.  It was taken on that Cotswold cycling holiday, in 1965, but I've labelled it wrongly.  I wonder where it was?


How's this for an unusual spire - Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire.


And here is an octagonal spire at Fifield in Oxfordshire.


And, of course, I had to include a weathercock - this one is just down the road at Thurstaston on the Wirral.
