A Crown Spire

One of those mornings where the sun is about to burn off the morning mist, and day will truly break out!

The Crown Spire is a traditional form of steeple in which curved stone flying buttresses form the open shape of a rounded crown. It was a feature of mediaeval churches, and then reappeared in the 19th century as part of the Gothic Revival. The most famous one in Scotland is St Giles in Edinburgh, but I think the Peebles Old Parish Church setting is much better.
