Hi everybody,
In
the picture i've posted you can see the church of Saint Mary and All
Saints which is known for its crooked spire. The church is located in
Chesterfield, a small market town, and this church is the largest one in
Derbyshire.
The question
is, what made the spire crooked? What did it happen? Well, there are
lot of legends but the historians tell us that with the outbreak of the
Black Death most of the workmen who were working in the construction of
the church fell to the plague and the building was built by different
unskilled craftsmen. This reason plus the atmospheric effects could
damage the spire making it an interesting and special place to visit.
