Dick Bowler wishes to be associated with these performance.  A donation of £20 have been made by the bell ringers to the North Staffordshire Bell Restoration Fund, for these performances.

It's been an absolute honor ring our tribute to our longest serving monarch.

Tomorrow we will ring at 11am 'fully open' for the Proclamation of King Charles III.

The bells will be heard fully open for our Sunday Service and then will be half muffled again for the remaining mourning period.
