Separate but related query: this mirror is in effect going to fit
within an alcove-type space where it is constrained on three out of four

Difficulty is that of course none of the walls are true, so ideally I'd
prepare a paper template before attacking the mirror, but I'm all out of
sheets of paper 7'x3'. Any alternatives to sellotaping together an
entire edition of The Times?!

Its important that your template remain xompletely flat, otherwise the
dimensions will be out. Therefore the Times isnt any good. I dont think
wallpaper would be at that size either. Cardboard would work if you
could get a flat piece big enough, but thats unlikely. I'd look at
ultrathin mdf or ply for a template.
