Each bell has a plaque and they are the original bells from the tower. The bells were replaced due to faults but the damaged ones are located at ground level for all to see as valued history pieces.
The No. 5 and No. 2 bells were replaced in 1999 because they are listed and cracked. They are on display for everyone to see now.
Access to the church can be obtained anytime during the day - just obtain the key as directed in the entrance porch.
