    • In 1760 the three bells were disposed of and replaced with 6.
      On the fourth the name Thomas HALKE is inscribed. The reason is not clear. The fifth had the name of the bell hanger, the sixth of the curate and churchwarden. Maybe Thomas gave a donation towards the bells. Or maybe it was to include the name of an earlier Thomas HALKE, placed on a bell made only 54 years earlier, who was at that time churchwarden.
