The tower, a neat Gothic building about 100 feet high consists of four stages, well ornamented, crowned with a battlement of hollow work, and three solid pinnacles ; but over the stair-case, which projects circularly at one corner, and contains 160 steps, there is a large pinnacle of hollow work about 18 feet high to the vane. The third stage contains a peal of six bells.
