Isn't it called "The Bell Tower" in Perth?

I think it houses the bells from the church of St Martin in the Field in London which were 'donated' to WA.

The Swan Bells. This was Perths millenium year present to itself. Bells ring out throught the day...very cool building. 15 or so bells inside, donated by various Sister cities and institutions from overseas.

This is NOT called the Perth Tower! It is known simply as the Swan Bells (due to the fact that it is on the river Swan and full of Bells).

This is familiarly called the Bell Tower, and as some people have already correctly pointed out, is known as The Swan Bells, and the bells are from St Martin in the Fields in London. Has never been known as the Perth tower.

My wife and myself have just visited Perth, Sep 2007, to revisit where we used to live in 1964-68, i have to say, it is as wonderful now as then, and the bell tower is tremendus to see, we were trying to find the old causeway flats, where we used to live, and spotted them behind a new building on St. Georges terrace near the causeway bridge, we would love to have taken a picture, but we were on our way to the airport and home to England. It is a wonderful area of W.A. and i wish i was still there. Barry Wilson Lincoln England
