St Mary's Parish  Church,  Richmond, North Yorks  
BELL RESTORATION APPEAL

Picture500-year-old Bell hung for change ringing in St Mary's. The full caption reads SCA TRINITAS UNUS DEUS (HOLY TRINITY ONE GOD)


          Thanks to the generosity of so many, including a Heritage Lottery Fund grant, we now have enough money to cast the new bells, replace the bell frame, and refurbish the historic bells

​Too many towers have fallen silent because of the high cost of repairs and maintenance. 

At Saint Mary's we made a commitment to safeguard the future of bellringing by investing in the restoration of our historic bells  and frame. 

A 500 year old tradition will be preserved. Church bells will continue to be heard in Richmond now and into  the next century and beyond.

Work has started to refurbish the old and install the new. Follow the work on our  blog

The new bells are in the belfry. We hope ringing will restart in the next 2 weeks or so
