The leaning tower

The tower of St Laurence's church is renowned for its leaning tower, and the spire which has its own lean. The churchwarden tells me that the two largest bells (they have a ring of 12) is outside the footprint of the church at ground level. The sightlines are not brilliant when it comes to portrating this fascinating feature. This is a grade I listed building - seee https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1064403?section=official-list-entry .
