* This ringing will last a maximum total per session of 50 minutes (usually 20 minutes) unless otherwise stated. From time to time we may need to "raise" the bells ready to be rung for service or weddings. This will always be done with the sound control closed and take around 10 minutes.

This information should not be considered confirmed and final until one month before ringing takes place. Last update 15th May 2010
