The present ring of 6 bells were rehung (anticlockwise) in 1912 in an oak frame that has been much altered over the years since the tower was added to this fragment of a Norman Abbey in about 1630. The frame and fittings have come to the end of their useful life and the bells will be unringable until a complete restoration project has been funded.
