Bell Tower, St Philip & St James, Hallow, Worcestershire, England - Bell Towers on Waymarking.com

From their website:-The addition of the spire to the total height of 150 feet, and a peal of eight bells, chimes and clock of three dials completed the church in 1900. Mrs. Wheeley Lea gave all these in memory of her husband Charles who died on January 13th, 1898 and who had been head of the firm Lea & Perrins, makers of Worcester Sauce.
It is recorded that in 1552, the Old Church had "one steeple bell, a little sacrynge bell and a little lych bell." In 1740 there were said to be five bells. One had the inscription: "Cum tonat hoc signum, hostem fugat Anna malignum." ["Where this sign resounds Anna puts to flight the malignant enemy"], and was believed to have been cast at a foundry in Sidbury over 500 years ago. This bell was still in Hallow Church in 1900 but later it was removed to the new Church at Broadheath.

Messrs. Taylor of Loughborough cast the present bells. They have the following inscriptions:-
No.1 With Faith, We Praise Thee
No.2 With Hope, We Bless Thee
No.3 With Charity, We Worship Thee
No.4 With Justice, We Glorify Thee
No.5 With Prudence, We Give Thanks to Thee
No.6 With Temperence, We Magnify Thee
No.7 With Fortitude, We Call unto Thee
No.8 With Praise, To the Glory of God
