The artwork by A K Dolven, "Out Of Tune", 2011 The bell held aloft on a wire above the beach is a 16th century tenor bell from Scraptoft Church in Leicestershire, which was removed from the church because it was out of tune with the other bells in the peal. Its site on the beach in Folkestone was intended to align with the tower of St Mary and St Eanswythe (Folkestone Parish Church) which dates back to the 7th century. It also ‘speaks’ to St Peters Church, clearly visible on the East Cliff.
