There are still an event to look forward to with the Beccles Bell Tower team this year.
On Thursday 1st December 2022 there doors will be open as a gift shop and Information Centre, this as a part of the Beccles small business day from 2:00pm until 8:00pm.
Meanwhile, the team are ready for Christmas and have made a great job of making the tower look very festive.
The Tower Reopening day for regular trips to top is Saturday 8th April 2023 10:00am until 4:00pm.
When the tower is open, visitors can count the number of steps (over 100!) to the top and enjoy the spectacular views across the Waveney Valley and towards Lowestoft and the Suffolk coast. Those visiting will be given an informative guided tour on the way up, including a chance to see the historic bells.
This year saw the return of the popular Treasure Hunt around Beccles – which was organised by the bell tower volunteers.
If you fancy visitng the tower next year, it costs just £2.50 for over 16s and £1.50 for children aged over 4. Dogs are not allowed to go up the Tower – but the team are happy to keep your dog safe in the reception area whilst you go up the Tower.
Please remember – opening times subject to weather conditions and the availability of volunteers.
Please be aware that the tower is closed for a time on days when there is a wedding at the Church, this to give the bellringers access to the Tower.
