Welcome to the tour

This section allows you to look around Saint Bartholomew's. There are about 35 locations, and at each one, there is a selection of options that allow you to choose your own route around the church and its grounds - just click on the description of where you'd like to go. You can go back to the home page at any time by clicking the End the tour option.

Why not take a look around and see if you can find the Fawnt tomb? (It's in the church, near the altar).

Although the pictures have been optimised and the locations split into three pages so they will load more quickly, the pictures will take a minute or two to load. You can still look around while the pictures are loading, but please be patient.

1792 view Go back to the present day
End the tour
This print of 1792 shows a much more elegant tower than the present tower. The explanation is that its Western half collapsed and was built up narrower than it had been, and at a reduced height, in 1830. Two of the three bells were sold to pay for the work. The bell that remains has a Latin inscription and is dated 1617.
