middle of winter and I've only just found out that my livingroom window has a ~4mm gap between the top of the glass and the window frame. The windows are going to be replaced anyway, but how the hell did this happen? Slippage, or was it always like that?

Typical of the Mughal period (1526-1858). The shutters were wood but red sandstone was used for the rest because it recalled the color of imperial tents and was easy to carve on. According to Emperor Akhbar's court historian: "Clever workmen chisel it so skillfully, as no turner could do with wood."
For more Mughal architecture, see my Taj Mahal and Fort Agra sets.
