Dette er et meget simpelt frit stående klokketårn bærende en enkelt klokke. Konstruktionen er udført i træ og er placeret nær kirkegårdens kapel. Klokken anvendes med håndkraft ved begravelser hvor kisten efterfølgende skal sættes i jorden på kirkegården. Ved sådanne lejligheder kimes der mens kisten bæres ud af kirken og frem til gravstedet. Årstal for opførelse af tårnet er ukendt.
