In AD 2001 the eight bells were re-tuned and the ring rehung with new ringing fittings in the existing wrought-Iron. “double-bar” frame. The pitch of the re-tuned tenor is E natural minus 27/100 of a semitone. The Sanctus bell was also rehung with new fittings for swing-chiming on it’s existing bracket frame.
