(St.) Paul's Bell Tower

(St.) Paul's Bell Tower
   In the Lib. Cust. I. 343, it is stated that the Campanile used by the citizens to summon the Folkmoot was situated on the east side of the Church, where the new burial ground was.
   Stow says there was a great and high Clochier or bell house on the north side with four bells called Jesus' Belles and belonged to Jesus' Chappell (S. 332).
   He also speaks of Bell Towers at the west end (372).
