More about this scene
St Michael's Church is unique in the county in having the base of the tower open on three sides. There is a picture with the arches walled up, but they were unblocked in the mid 1800s. From then until 1940 the bell ringers operated in the open air! The tower was refurbished and the bells rehung in 1940. It is thought that it was at this time that the ringers moved indoors to the tower room. The war memorial on the right was consecrated in 1920.
