History Of The BellsA nice pretty Warwickshire village. The church has three bells, with room for more. They are very much in a ringable state. The cast iron frame and fittings are by Thomas Bond of Burford, 1938. The treble was previously rehung by Barwells in about 1900 at which time it was quarter turned. It has now been one-eighted turned. All bells have had their canons removed. A piece from the old bellframe dated 1636 is preserved in the tower. Look for the sign from High Street signed "Church Street Only" to the left Details Of The Bells1 Henry Bagley I, Chacombe 1636 4cwt 28.00" 2 John Appowell, Buckingham c1560 5½ 31.00" 3 Henry Bagley, Chacombe 1663 7cwt 34.25" Photo GalleryNone Available |
