A group of ringers, who are spending the weekend in this area, will ring the bells at St Peter's from 9.30am for an hour.
The group are members of the Welsh Colleges Guild, who are holding their AGM later in the day in Lichfield. They are touring a number of other churches in the area, including St Editha's Tamworth later in the day.
A project to augment St. Peters' church bells from four to six, commemorating the centenary of the First World War. There are many ways to get involved: make a donation, volunteer to learn the art of bell ringing, or offer your labour to the project to help keep costs down. This blog tells the story of the project and keeps readers informed of progress.

Peal Board Now in Position
The peal board commemorating the first peal rung on the six bells has been mounted on the wall in the ringing room. Thanks go to Ray Kneale.
The board was painted by Maggie Willans of Bath was has produced many boards for churches in the UK.
I hope that this will be the first of many.
