The tower contains six bells in a timber frame of 1873. Five of them were cast in 1739 while the sixth was added in 1897 to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.

Bell ringing is a team activity that stimulates the brain and helps you keep fit... It also makes a glorious sound! Many consider ringing to be their contribution to Church life, others do it for the pure pleasure it brings.
What's in it for me?
A hobby which involves:
|
|
being part of a team
|
|
|
providing a service for the church
|
|
|
a good social life
|
|
|
continually learning something new
|
Bell ringing is good fun! Once you have learned the basic technique you will always be made welcome when you visit other towers. There are more than 5,000 church towers and a small number of secular towers with bells suitable for change ringing.
