Bells

Three bells hung for full circle ringing.  The second bell is cracked and the fittings are in need of attention to make these bells ringable.

Frame and Fittings

The wooden frame appears to be a Victorian copy of the medieval original.  The traditional fittings, with the exception of the substantial wheels, are earlier.

Clock

A two train A frame clock by Cooke of York 1863.  It is in very good condition partly due to its well designed case.  It strikes the hours on the tenor.
