This tower is part of the original construction of the church. It is Ecclesiastic white with a spire like top. There are louvered opening where the bell can be found. A celtic like cross graces the top and there are four megaphones placed equidistant around the bell tower, on the outside. I was down the street @ Rhawnhurst caterers and heard the bell ring in the half hour.
This church is 74 years old, or perhaps 58 years old, depending on which cornerstone you see first. There are two cornerstones, one from 1935, the other, 1951. I was unable to find a website. I called during office hours. They refused to pick up the phone. The message machine came on and it was garbled and unintelligble.
