While the Catholic Church is well-presented in a red-brick Gothic style, this Bell Tower has been made of 6", or 150 mm water pipe, painted brown many years ago. The single bell hangs on its swiveling mount below a 4" (100 mm) square metal brace.

From a zoomed photo, I will try to transcribe the writing on the bell:

"UT DEI TRINI AETERNI
PER TE RESONENT
LAUDES ET MONITA
REV M. MOYLAN
ME FIERI FECIT
A.D. 1953"
