(The peal is tuned to the key of F Sharp (750 Hz))

The tenor bell (John Rudhall 1790) was recast due to excessive clapper wear, the eight bells were turned, equipped with all new ringing fittings and hung in a new lowside cast-iron bell frame on a steel grillage by A C Berry of Malvern in 1999-2000 to commemorate the Millennium. The tenor bell was the last one to be cast at the Bellfoundry, Loughborough before the Millennium.
