The St. Mary's Church Bell ringers are an inexperienced but keen band who are just re establishing themselves. We try to ring at Sunday service every first Sunday in the month and other special occasions although it is our intention to ring every Sunday when the band becomes strong enough.
Sunday ringing is between 09-30 and 10-00.
We have several new ringers who are now past the handling stage and progressing to call changes and plain hunting. We are frequently supplemented by visitors for which the regular ringers are very grateful.
Visitors are most welcome as we are keen to get our new learners progressing to method ringing. Access to the tower is by the door at the rear of the church at the bottom of the tower.

The St. Mary's Church Bell ringers are an inexperienced but keen band.
Sunday ringing is between 09-30 and 10-00. There is NO ringing on the first Sunday of each month.
Practice nights are every Monday between 19:30 and 21:15. Visitors are most welcome as we are keen to get our learners progressing to method ringing. Access to the tower is by the door at the rear of the church at the bottom of the tower.
Many of the band are approaching University age and will leave the band. We are therefore very keen to recruit new ringers. If you want to find out more please contact me. My contact details are on the Surrey Bellringers web site.
We look forward to seeing you.
Ian Griffiths.
