The three bellropes hang very close to the wall of the room at the base of the tower - looking to be a difficult place from which to ring them.
From the website cited below:-
There are three bells in the tower. The treble was made by John Martin of Worcester in 1661 and is inscribed with the words ‘prayse and glory be to God for ever’. The middle bell is inscribed with a cross, two lions passant (with one front paw raised, often found on coats of arms) and the letters H K and G O H O, perhaps in reference to the maker. Richard Saunders of Bromsgrove produced the third, tenor bell in 1713. It bears no remarkable inscription.
