Anyone with a connection to the village which is the Wangford near Southwold?

Wangford Church NW of Southwold is another much restored Suffolk Church this time again in the 19c by its benefactor Lord Stradbroke, what is unusual is that the tower is placed on the north east side, the only one I know of in the county
