*Links:

The church Website has photos of the building in the Photo Archive.  An architectural history page (part of a large section which apparently is not linked to the current home page) has illustrations of the building, and links to an illustrated page about the bells (unfortunately marred by mis-spellings).

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the Petit & Fritsen bellfoundry, in this region and in the world.
