The Church Tower
The church has a 90 foot perpendicular west tower, which was rebuilt or added to in 1480-85 using brown ironstone. The tower is built in five stories marked by diminishing stages of angle buttresses. It has an embattled parapet.Above the west door is a three light rectilinear window and the belfry windows are each of two lights. The tower roof was restored in 1955-56 and is covered with lead.
In the 1900's Sidney Hall, a local inhabitant and jeweller, was suspended by ropes in a chair while he gilded the church clock dial (Melville 1861).
There are currently twelve bells in the belfry. [more about the bells]
