The brass bell could be about 16" diameter, but it is hard to 'scale it' for size, as standard bricks were not used in the building, but rather, stone blocks cemented together were used on this old church, of various sizes.
There is an angled metal rod arm coming from the bar that the bell is suspended from, that protrudes to the back. Then there is a cable from the arm, that goes down to a sheathed entry at terracotta ridge capping of the slate roof.
The Church was Dedicated in 1860 (from the church sign).
