I think software adjustment is probably better suited to complete buildings, such as the old church in my original post (but I've got a lot of learning and practice to do). One thing that seems desirable is to have a lot of space around the main image so that the distorted edges can be cropped out. With my latest attempt I needed to do a fair bit of cloning around the boundary to fill the rectangular frame.
