Description
The Bell Tower and St Lawrence's Church in Evesham, Worcestershire. Evesham’s Bell Tower is undoubtedly the country’s finest detached Bell Tower and the iconic building of Evesham. Apart from being a beautiful building, it holds an acclaimed ring of bells (one of the best English-hung ring of bells in the world). The Bell Tower is also one of the last links to the great Abbey of Evesham. It was built around 1530 and was commissioned by the last true abbot of Evesham, Abbot Clement Lichfield, with the detailed masonry being overseen by Robert Vertue the younger. The Abbey Church and nearly all the monastic buildings disappeared following the Dissolution of the Monastries.
