You could try reducing the temperature and reducing speed. Some people also recommend printing to st a time to give the other one more time to cool down.

The top/bottom layers seem to have some gaps between filament prints

It appears that at the top of the arches/windows have some bulges on them

The chimney seems to bulge out slighty

I don't if you have been following the Bowden tube thread? Your symptoms sound just like mine. In my case the tube being properly seated in the radiator. Once figured out every now works. Below is my last remarks copied from that thread. Perhaps might help? Paul

Thank for this valuable thread and advice!
I remade the Bowden tube after getting a PCB drill. What a difference! Sharp and clean finish. I also pre-threaded the tube using a M4 nut before attempting to screw into radiator. Also carefully measured the length of thread and marked the guide filament so I knew when it was fully seated. 1/2 turn back suggested too. Shortened Bowden tube to have better 'fold' profile as effector moves up. Added cable tie to keep it upright at effector top.
And now a smooth insertion of filament. What a difference.
Now printing predictably. But only after resetting Slicer to default settings (too much filament in wrong places) !
Lesson for me - if having to keep adjusting retract feed and speed and temp I ought to understand the underlying issues.
Thank you all!

Have a look at the topic Skipping Extruder on page 3 by kelief - many of us had similar problems that were cured when we remade the Bowden tube connection to the hot end
It seems that if the tube is not a smooth connection with no gaps the filament cools and causes the skipping on retract.
Also thread on Bowden tube

I've got the printer head in pieces now, and when I manual feed the filament through the radiator/nozzle, it doesn't feed smooth.
The point that the bowden tube touches the nozzle (inside the radiator) is a point of resistance.....is this the issue?

Erik did you post this "cooling ring" somewhere? I would really like to add something like that to my ormerod... (might have missed it on your first posting).
