Scawby is a picturesque village in North Lincolnshire. The church was mainly rebuilt by the Victorians, but the bottom half of the tower remains medieval. The bellframe is a substantial late 19th century structure, probably built locally with wood from the estate. The only inscription on the...

less than two minutes walk from Old St Martins (Old St Martins bells can be heard in the distance at 1:11 ) is St Swithuns, which is now a redundant church which still retains a set of six bells. They are not easy to get good ringing on, partly because of some rather bad oddstruckness (including...
