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.
6 bells tenor 5-3-21 in Bb
