Hi Chris,

Thanks for your comments. Sorry no prize this time
I did check the position from the bowling green on Mount Pleasant, but from that location St. Nicholas church would be much further to the right of St George's church than is shown [see below]. Not only that, St Peter's church would also be featured amongst the spires of St George's and Nicholas' churches.
On the George Perry 1769 map [which is the same year as the painting] the 'bowling green' is shown in the top right hand corner, which is the top of Upper Duke Street. I'll work out the exact location and post later on.
Cheers,
Daz
