Chesterfield is twisted rather than leaning - it is a member of the Association of Twisted Spires of Europe. Most of the European ones were built like that, but Chesterfield's wasn't. Feb 21 05, 3:53 PM

Bridgnorth is a town on two levels joined by the steepest railway in England and its castle slopes at a greater angle than the Pisa counterpart: http://www.mythstories.com/hlf/bridgnorth/bridcast.jpg Feb 21 05, 5:47 PM

That's a castle? It looks more like a huge rock... Feb 21 05, 6:20 PM

It's made of sandstone, was built in 1101 and hasn't been used for a few centuries so it would look a little dilapidated. Feb 21 05, 6:28 PM
