A small number of radio galaxies have two sets of classical double radio lobes with the radio axes aligned in different directions. Furthermore differences in the properties of the radio lobes such as the surface brightness and spectral index indicate that the two sets of double radio structure have different ages. The radio ejection axis has therefore changed direction with time. In the first two known radio galaxies of this type, 3C 315 and B2 0055+26, the host galaxy is a member of a close pair of ellipticals in a common optical envelope suggesting that the complex radio structure is caused by gravitational interaction.
