The old bells had:
1.
Fac tibi Baptista sit ut acceptabilis ista
(With a head, probably of St. John Baptist.)

Possibly this was a similar bell to No. 1 at Kirk Fenton.
2.
VENITE EXVLTEMVS DOMINO 1668
(Weight, 11 cwt. 3 qrs. 19 lbs.)
3. In Iucunbitate soni sonabo tibi Dne et in dulcedine votiv tuo noe 1604 W. O.
(Weight, 15 cwt.)
Nos. 1 and 2 were recast in 1844 by Messrs. Mears, and now weigh 8 cwt. 0 qrs. 6 lbs. and 12 cwt. 1 qr. 14 lbs. respectively.
