The bell tower can be seen in the front
of the building above the clock face. This could be constructed from either
Portland stone or cement but it is hard to tell from ground level. One bell can
be seen in the tower.
Loves Guide to the Church Bells of Westminster (visit
link) does not have a detailed description of the bells in this tower. It
does, however indicate the following:
"ST JOHN THE EVANGELIST, Hyde Park Crescent [Paddington]
(2: 6-3-20)".
This shows that there are two bells and the heaviest weighs
6-3-20.
