I'm glad you liked them!  I don't have any family in East Anglia at all but I really like seeing the churches where they did come from, so I thought I'd help those who can't get to Norfolk and Suffolk

St Andrew's is a strange church as the tower is massive, almost like a fortress, but inside there are no transcepts and it feels quite small.  The graveyard, which is also huge,  is like an arboretum with lots of mature trees of many different types

I'd guess from the pictures that the tower dates from Norman times, but the rest is later. Possibly restyled during the C16-17th when Norfolk wool made the county rich and a lot of amazing churches were created.
