The planned church Website remained undeveloped from May 2002 through 2006.  The new Website of the combined Parish of St.Lawrence has a small photo of Trinity's building, but only a small part of the tower is visible.

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.
