In theory an exercise could be undertaken to compare other building illustrations in the manuscript with other buildings in a given region. For example, I think on the causeway between the top centre rosette and the top right rosette we see a flat-roofed bell tower or campanile. These only occur in a limited geographical area. I have not undertaken this exercise as I already have a specific opinion as to which precise building in represented in this case as I have with the swallow-tailed merlons.
It is also worth noting that there is a building with a very steep spire on the causeway between the top left rosette and the top centre rosette(not the building in the centre). Very steep spires seem to be a feature common in southern Germany/German Switzerland, if my memory serves me well.
