Raising The Rafters In Our Peace Garden

Raising The Rafters In Our Peace Garden

Over the last week, construction has been under way in our Peace Garden of a new Bell Tower to replace the temporary housing of the Peace Bell.

The new tower is made of fine oak and it will be a fitting home for the Peace Bell which rings out on special occasions - most notably last November - when 100 peals of the bell were made during the week leading up to the 100th anniversary of the end of The Great War.

The finishing touches are still to be made but we thought you'd like to see the progress thus far.   Watch this space for news of the opening ceremony for the Bell Tower which will take place on 12th July - St. Julie's birthday!
