Until 1883 there were 4 bells, notes B A G F sharp, forming the upper 

 half of a minor scale. In that year the treble and tenor, with fresh metal 

 added, were recast into the present 1, 2, 3, 4. On each of these is inscribed 

 the name of the founder, and on one of them the name of Lot Curtis, a 

 former parish clerk, whose friends provided it (J. Brown).
