Town Square with Church Bells

Stroll through the town square as the bells summon the townsfolk to the day's services. Church bells have been common in Europe since the early Middle Ages. They were first common in northern Europe, reflecting Celtic influence, especially that of Irish missionaries. Before there were church bells, Greek monasteries would ring a flat metal plates to announce services. Many church bells are electronically timed to chime, but in the United Kingdom, bells are still usually rung by people. Enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the picturesque town of your imagination.
