The Bell Tower or Campanile was built in 1927 and housed a splendid and melodious old chiming clock from a demolished London brewery and for many years the chiming of its bells marked the hour at Portmeirion.
A plaque at the base of the tower carries a dedication to his ancestor who had built previously on this site, Gruffydd ap Cynan, King of North Wales.
