Brenderup avonride knott brake shoe lean

Chaps, I could do with your help!

Just been servicing the brakes and bearings on a brenderup twin able trailer and I find that the front brake shoe on one wheel is more worn on one side and seems to lean in (see pics). Any idea what can be causing this?

Are the springs on the right way? i.e. On the inside face of the shoes?

If they're on the outside face they have a tendency to pull the shoes off the backplate and against the inside of the brake drum.
