Timecast are accurate to the actual buildings (I've been travelling with them, they take photos and tape measurements), plus Barrie was in photo reconnaissance.

This means that, if you like to use "landscaped" village/town bases, the buildings can be interchangeable.  I'm planning to make a few scratchbuilt buildings for my LOA Flanders armies and I will be keeping to 80mm x 40mm and 40mm x 40mm base sizes.

The Total Battle Buildings are very nice, and are good for gaming, as they have a reduced footprint.

I knew they were based on actually buildings, but didn't know that level of research went in to them.

I've got TBM and Timecast buildings, but from different periods, but I'm not sure they are that compatible with each other style wise.

I realy like theTimecast stuff. they are a delight to  paint and I have quite a few. They do have a relatively large footprint when compared to other ranges.

See what you mean about 'not square'....Probably wouldn't have noticed that if you hadn't mentioned it.

I like bigger buildings. I tend too use a fairly small figure ration: in WWII it's 1:1, in Napoleonics (if I ever get any painted ) it's 1:10. Bigger buildings look better IMHO.

The basing of the barrel vaulted house makes sense when you put the village together ;)
