For the last time this year, we are opening up our historic church tower to the general public! As well as providing you with a new perspective of our Victorian church and its belfry, this is also an exciting opportunity to take in a unique view of Portsmouth from 167 feet in the air. Climb the tower to look out from the only viewing point which gives you a 360-degree-view of the whole city.
Tours of the tower are completely FREE. The last climb of the day will be at 3.30pm. Terms and conditions apply to climbing the tower:
– Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times
– No children under the age of 5 years or under 1 metre tall are allowed to climb the tower
– No open-toed shoes, sandals or flip flops are allowed
– You must follow all the instructions from our volunteers, who will be preventing two-way traffic on the steep and narrow stairs. Please give space to other people to avoid tripping
– The tower may need to close at short notice due to adverse weather conditions
– The clergy hold the right to refuse anyone access to the tower if persons are deemed unsafe or not fit to climb
