Main Page

Crondall, Hampshire, All Saints


The Trust has supplied a clock bell and a service bell to the parish. The clock bell was installed in 2000 and came from Newchurch, Gwent. The bell at Newchurch being replaced by a smaller bell from nearby Shirenewton.

The service bell is an ex-Trinity House buoy bell cast by Mears. It was installed during 2002.

Alton, Hampshire, All Saints


A brand new ring of six bells was installed during 2006 and these replaced the heavier ring of three. The Trust has found "new" homes for two of the three old bells. One is now the tenor of the augmentation from three to six at Otterham, Cornwall. The other has been installed as part of a chime at Ennis Cathedral, Ireland.

Hannington, Hampshire, All Saints


It is hoped that the unringable ring of three bells will be restored and augmented. The Trust has offered to donate a second-hand bell that should be suitable as the third of the proposed augmentation to a ring of six.

Avington, Hampshire, St Mary


A ring of three bells has been installed during 2008 with provision for future augmentation to six. In 1960 the derelict ring of six bells was removed. Two bells to augment the ring to five have been located and it is hoped they will be installed shortly.
