There are six bells in the tower of St. Mary's with the Tenor weighing 12cwt. The ringing chamber is above the high altar and directly below the bell loft, so the sound of the bells can clearly be heard. The attached sound file was recorded in the bell chamber and the Conductor can be heard calling the bells to 'stand' at the end of a quarter peal. bells.WAV

Access for ringing is by a new circular stairway recently competed.
