The bells at Christ Church
The bells at Christ Church were cast in 1884 by the Warner bell foundry in London.
They underwent major renovation in 1999 when Nicholson Engineering provided all new fittings.
The history of the bells is detailed here.
The bellringers are keen but currently low in numbers as a few people have moved away. We ring on
Sunday mornings at 10.30 for the 11.15 service. The bells are perfect for teaching new people as they are
light and easy to ring (six bells, tenor 6 cwt for the technically minded!). If you're interested in
having a go, all are welcome to pop along to our practice on the second and fourth Thursday of each month
(7.30 to 9.00 p.m.). We also ring the bells for weddings and other special services.
