The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Le clocher reproduit un type très répandu dans les départements de la Haute Garonne et du Tarn et Garonne. C'est un mur pignon surélevé et percé de trois rangs d'ouvertures pouvant accueillir cinq cloches. Chaque étage est séparé par un bandeau orné de dents de scie. Les amortissements en pinacles, la galerie à mâchicoulis courant sur trois face et l'escalier existent encore. Complet, ce clocher n'a jamais subi de remaniements. Seul le portique à trois arcades qui précède le portail de l'église a été ajouté et masque le portail du 14e siècle. L'escalier du clocher est construit en brique, comme l'ensemble de l'édifice.

The bell tower reproduces a type very widespread in the departments of Haute-Garonne and Tarn-et-Garonne. It is a raised gable wall pierced with three rows of openings able to accommodate five bells. Each storey is separated by a band decorated with saw-tooth pattern. The crocketed finials, the gallery with machicolations running on three faces and the staircase still exist. Complete, this bell tower has never undergone alterations. Only the three-arched portico which precedes the church doorway was added and masks the 14th-century doorway. The bell tower staircase is built in brick, like the entire building.
