notes:-  
6 bells were cast in memory of Henry and Jessie Walton and their children, 1949; 4 bells were added in memory of churchwarden Andrew Graham Stewart Steele, murdered in the Midland Bank, 13 September 1950. The bells are unringable because tower is too weak, they can be chimed, from a keyboard.
