This video is in memory of Marcus Brown, 1951-2020. Beloved vicar of Rodmell.
On Sunday 19th October 2019, Harvest Sunday, the bells of St Peter's in Rodmell rang for the first time in 60 years. This followed a number of days of work done by local ringers to allow the bells to be rung for the village, one last time, before they were restored. The bells were rung twice (up, ring, down) because 4 of the bells had no stays. These bells are very unique in that the tenor is not in tune with the others.
The bells were augmented in 1909 by Warner's at the request of the vicar of the time, Rev Hawksford. However these weren't a great success and were only pealed once and rung only a handful of times! They then fell silent... until now!
