Whilst triangular cutwaters are relatively common, where economy of material was important they rarely extend in height above peak flood level, sometimes no more than just above normal river level.
In this case the triangular shape extends all the way to parapet level, far beyond the point where they are likely to have any water cutting benefit. The function, if any, at that point becomes butressing the spandrel wall (the inverted triangular shaped wall between the arches), or simply as an ornamental feature.
Does that affect the argument and the proportions. Please explain in more depth if possible.
Autosomal DNA Would seem to be inherited thus, You are 50% of each of your parents, 25% of your grandparents, 12.5% great grandparents, 6.25% of your 2Xgreat grandparents, and 3.125% of your 3Xgreat grandparents. Obviously therefore unless you have a high level of inbreeding in your tree then this seems to be little use in determining your ancestral line beyond your great grandparents.
