A tiny belfry surmounts the gable of the chancel, and in it swings a small bronze bell which at one time, many years ago, rang in the belfry of an old Byzantine Church in Greece. Mr. Livingwood found it in a little shop in Athens, during the summer of 1925. It is perhaps two hundred years old. On its outer surface has been cast a crucifix and a figure of Christ reigning in glory. It rings by a chain run through a conduit into the vestry.

Chapel floor
Polished limestone floor
All the stone, with the exception of the roof, is from a quarry on Indian Hill. It is limestone with many fossil remains, and so presents an interesting surface, particularly when smoothed and polished. This appears especially well in the treatment of the floor. The irregular slabs of the nave floor still show the saw marks. The first level of the chancel has the stones honed to smoothness, and the flooring of the Sanctuary, around the alter, has been given a polish like marble.

The solid masonry of the walls has been laid for generations to come, and there is no reason why this Church should not endure for centuries.

A careful examination of the main fabric of the building will reveal what appear to be additions to the original building: the low side-aisle, the porch, later Gothic window tracery, and the south vestry.
