A Brief History of The Bells of All Saints Church - Marlow

There has been a church on this site since before 1070. We know that by 1593 the building had a wooden tower with four bells, and these had been increased to five by 1610. In 1719 the five bells were recast into six. Three of these six still exist in our present ring of eight bells. In 1834, when the present church was under construction, the six bells from the old building were installed and augmented to eight by the addition of a new treble and tenor. In 1934, all eight bells were re-tuned and re-hung on ball bearings.

 The present tower contains:-

Bell	Diameter	Weight (cwt)	Note	Date
Treble	2' 5"	4	F	1834
2	2' 5"	4½	E	1827
3	2' 5"	4¼	D	1934
4	2' 7"	6	C	1719
5	2' 9"	7	Bb	1719
6	3' 0"	8	A	1719
7	3' 4"	11	G	1978
8	3' 8"	15	F	1834

The present eight first rang together on 25th February 1835 and the first peal was rung on 5th June 1843.
