The bells The bells photographed
at some point after 1968

In November 1958 a peal of six bells was dedicated by the Bishop of Southwell.

This was increased to 8 bells by 1959 when the bells were hung in a low-sided cast-iron frame for 8 bells by Taylors of Loughborough.

All eight bells were cast by John Taylor & Co of Loughborough.
