The unringable bells were restored, in a DIY project by the Western Branch, in 2011 to celebrate the Centenary of the formation of the 3 Branches within 'The Worcestershire & Districts Change Ringing Association'.
In 2024 a professional restoration was carried out, a generous gift of a local ringer.
Visiting bands are very welcome. Quarter Peals are usually rung on Sunday afternoons.
