Saturday 21 September 2024 2pm – 5pm
On Saturday 21 September the congregation of All Saints’ Church will be opening up for Tower Tours from 2pm – 5pm. Visitors will be able to climb the 106 steps to the roof top of the tower of All Saints’ Church and enjoy spectacular views over Westbury and to the White Horse. Why not come and see if you can see your house from the top of the tower?
In the Ringing Chamber, members of the bell ringing team will be on hand to talk about the eight bells that hang in the tower: the third heaviest peal in the World. You will be able to view the workings of the 17th century chiming clock.
The tower will be open during Westbury’s famous Chili Fest taking place on the same day. Why not pop in and enjoy the view while you are in town?
All proceeds will go towards the work of the church and the upkeep of the Grade 1 Listed building.
Entry to the tower will be £3 per adult and £1 per child (cash and card payments)
Doors open at 1.45pm and the last tour at 4.30pm
You can find All Saints’ Church between the Market Place and the Library.
Pedestrian access is from Church Street, Market Place or Edward Street.
Parking is available in the High Street Car Park.
