ARG000142z, Nat, and compact lobe positioned on unusual galaxy

Here's ARG000142z, which appears to be a #nat to the NW and a #compact lobe to the SE. The contour overlay below is centred on SDSS J111142.38+404959.9, which is ESE of the ARG co-ordinates listed left. This ARG field is cross referenced in the following ARG post; ARG000142z 2 GALAXY RADIO SOURCES; and the radio galaxy to the SE is discussed in the following Galaxy Zoo post, An elliptical with a nucleus waaaay off-center: anyone seen this kind of object before?
The contour overlay image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk
thread. First in red.The host for the emission to the NW is SDSS J111139.74+405024.1, which has a z_sp=0.074 +/-0.00002. This galaxy has a number of radio references in NED and SIMBAD, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J111139.75+405024.4. It is also cited as the "Brightest galaxy in a Cluster" (BCG).
To the SE, the #compact lobe is positioned on SDSS J111143.60+404914.7. This galaxy has a z_sp=0.078 +/-0.00002, recorded first flux emission, radio references in NED and SIMBAD, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J111143.62+404915.5. Again, this galaxy is cited as being the "Brightest galaxy in a Cluster" (BCG).
It doesn't appear that this ARG field has been imaged in VLASS as yet.
As always, comments, suggestions, welcome.
