1992 St Mary's - welcoming back the restored bells

In 1992 the ancient bell, mounted on a hand-drawn wagon, was pulled from Stansted to the Whitechapel Bell Foundry for its restoration. A new and improved Bell Ringers’ gallery was built soon afterwards and the three original bells were augmented to six.

A nice slice of local history, and already 20 years old!

These pictures are held at the S&FHS.  



Here are the bells in action on YouTube.
