I've rung here twice once for a young ringers practice and again for a wedding a couple of years ago, there not the most easiest to ring but boy that ringing chamber really is a timecapsule!. from memory the 2nd is the oldest bell and the rest are mostly 18th century (although the treble was given as a war memorial in 1919), it's also good to see the bells I've always wondered what they looked like!.
Very nice! Thank- you!
Thankyou, totally Unplanned on the Ride & Stride but I love climbing west towers
beautiful church!
Built in the 1100s & and ruled by the Knights Hospilalier's imagine that, so little is known of them

Great experience you've had, I'd love to stand in the bell chamber wearing ear defenders & see the bells all go at the same time
You haven’t forgotten Goldhanger then!
Such a special place, & so far, only time I've witnessed the Ellacombe Chimes being played, must return for a meal in that loverly pub
