Tattingstone Wonder
The Tattingstone Wonder is a folly at Tattingstone in Suffolk, England.
Located some 6 miles (9.7 km) south of Ipswich the Tattingstone Wonder was originally two cottages. In 1790 Edward White,[a] the local squire, did not like his view of the cottages from Tattingstone Place. He decided to add a third cottage and finished them to look like a church by adding a fake tower and flint façade.[2] It has become a famous Suffolk landmark.[3][failed verification][4]
