Wheel Repairs

PictureRepaired wheel
After broken stay got trapped in the frame and stopped the treble bell dead damaging the wheel repairs have been taking place. The damage was confined mainly to two main spokes but has still lead to one half of the wheel being completely dismantled to just a rim and the rest in parts. The wheel has now been refitted after repairs and is looking set for many more years of service.
​You can see our latest pictures here. 
We will soon be back to ringing on all six.

Bell inscriptions

Have recently found some wax rubbings of the inscriptions taken of the bells before they were installed in 1977. A much easier task then when access was a lot easier. These rubbings were used as part of the advertising display used to raise money to complete the installation. They show the decorative part of the bells including some names and a image of a King George 1 two guinea gold piece which shows up especially clearly on the second bell. Find out more on the bell detail page.
