This monument was built in 1836 to commemorate a cornishman called Francis Basset who died in 1835,he was a big landowner and someone who cared deeply about Cornwall and its people,it was said that when he was laid to rest he was so loved that 20,000 people formed his procession, the monument is situated on a hill 750ft above sea level and the monument itself stands 90ft tall....the views from there are stunning too.

A nice image with the monument reaching for the sky. In order to improve it maybe you could straighten the wall. However, if this results in the monument tilting away from the vertical consider a crop removing the wall

Just needs to be straightened as Alan mentions, and its nicely vertical when straightened.

Since its shot against the sky, the stonework can be brightened a little, and the clouds toned down. With some sharpening, this is done in the mod.
