A Peel of Six Bells
The Tower houses a ring of six bells, which are rung regularly by an
enthusiastic group of bellringers. The oldest bell was cast about the
year 1380, the next between 1488 and 1525. Two bells date from
1604, one of which was a gift from Patrick Lowe (whose memorial is
in the Chancel) and is very richly decorated. The remaining two are
modern, being installed in 1907.
This picture shows the bells in 1897 when a new bell frame was
installed in the tower. The table below gives some details of each
bell.
