Village launches bells appeal
Residents plan to raise the cash to install a full peal of six bells in the church to mark its 100-year anniversary for 2011. The group is also appealing for volunteers to train as bell ringers under an expert from Ilkley.
Appeal committee chairman John Hopkins said: "We wanted a project to celebrate the centenary of our church. A magnificent peal of six bells will sound wonderful and will enhance not just the church but the village and valley as well."
