See more photographs At some stage the tower was built higher, as can be seen by comparing the early photograph with the more recent ones, probably also by Wynand Hendrik LOUW. The heightening of the tower was possibly to accommodate the workings of the new clock. References: Hoevers, Jan. 2005. Van Kerke en Dorpe.
