The bell is operational and rings once a day. It sits in a 40 foot tower flanked by stone wing walls which curve gracefully to the north and south of the tower. The tower is just an adornment or landmark for the entrance to the luxury planned community of Flying Horse. It is remeniscient of the stone and stucco dwellings which used to adorn the local country side in the not so distant past of the Colorado high planes.
