Building work commenced on the church, designed by Thomas Cundy and William Butterworth. It was completed in 1850. |
|
1847 |
|
A bell was cast by Charles and George Mears, placed over the gateway to the school adjacent to the church. It is currently stored within the school. |
|
1849 |
|
A ring of 10 bells was cast by Charles and George Mears and hung in a new frame in the tower. The tenor was given by Sir F.A.G. Ouseley. The treble was given a latchet stay. |
|
1888 |
|
"Bell News" described the bells as being "recently rehung". |
|
1965 |
|
Following ringing on 11 June, all ringing was barred by the incumbent. |

The bearings were cleaned and new wheels were made for the bells by Paul Huckstep. These were an ingeniuous design as they could be taken apart to curry the pieces up the stairs for reassembly in the belfry. |

The bells were tried out together on 13 December - their first ringing since 1965. |
