*Links:

The new Website of the combined Parish of St.Lawrence mentions the merger of St.Peter's with Trinity, but says nothing about Trinity's building.

A chimer's page has a photo of Trinity's tower near the top.

A military history site has a page about the church, with a photo of the building.

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the Taylor bellfoundry, in this region and in the world.
