I want to rotate parts of a mesh - could actually move them by hand but isn't there an easier way???

On the picture you can see the chosen part of the mesh - how it should be rotated and the arrow shows from where it rotates.

Please advice

yes it is possible believe it or not.

just use the shear/move/rotate tool in the plugins section and you can rotate from anywhere.
