All bells by John Taylor & Co. 1894. They have no cannons and hang from cast iron headstocks in a cast iron frame - Pickford 6.1: A1, B2, C3, D4, E5, F6. All the bells except the second are still on plain bearings. The ringing room, which offers magnificent views over the surrounding countryside, is reached via an external door in a porch on the south wall of the tower.

Parking is limited to the road to the North of the church. The village itself has no pub but sustenance is available at the mercifully unmodernised Railway Inn at Yorton.
