Description
The Crooked Spire of St. Mary and All Saints church located in the Market town of Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England. It dates back to around the 14th century and is a grade 1 listed building.
There are various reasons why it is thought that the spire has twisted. One being that unseasoned timbers were used at the time of building and the lack of cross bracing which made the spire unstable.
