This is something you don't expect to find sitting by itself out in the woods.

From Zion Grove take Ringtown Rd west and continue straight when it turns into Raricks Rd. The road will split, with Trout Rd. going off to the right and Bunker Hill Rd. going off to the left -- go left on Bunker Hill Rd. and continue on after the pavement ends and it turns to a gravel/dirt road. Continue on the road some distance until you see the bell just a few feet off on the right side of the road. There is plenty of room to pull off and park your vehicle, then turn around if you wish. Being unfamiliar with the area I relied a great deal on my GPS maps and its directions to find this one -- many of the roads did not appear to have signage and if not for the directions of the GPS I would not have known some of them were public roads rather than private driveways!

PLEASE be respectful of this piece of private property and do not touch or ring the bell. You may walk right up to it and take photographs but please do not disturb it in any way.
