This church has a unique steeple, or bell tower. It looks like maybe it was meant to be a bell tower, but there is no bell in there. Or maybe it was built to be a lookout tower, or observation tower, but there does not seem any reason or need for that.
Have found out the bell use to hang up there, now is displayed next to the Gothic Revival church.
