The landscape of Drangleic is also very different from Lordran. Granted, land formations can change over time, and perhaps the world of Dark Souls is subject to more extreme elements than in the real world; however, there is no sign of a coastline or the ocean in Lordran, and from what I have seen so far, there is no central plateau in Drangleic where Anor Londo would have been. As far as I can tell the theory goes that Heide's Tower of Flame is Anor Londo, or rather what's left of it. The architecture is similar, the enemies are similar, and then there's the Old Dragonslayer(and many other "visitors" from Lordran in other areas of the game). As Anor Londo was the highest point in Dark Souls, that would put entirety of Lordran under water and make Drangleic a neighbouring country NW of it. I believe that Heide's was simply a Copy of Anor Londo, the Architecture is Different, The Enemies share a little Resemblence to the Sentinels, but not Enough to Merit the Idea that they are The Sentinels, and as Daifu said, There is no Apparant Coat anywhere near Anor.
