[Bell Historians] St John the Evangelist, Folkton, nr. Filey, N. Yorkshire

Its all in fair condition(2003) but a swing chime. There are tie rods across the inside of the pit ends, the clapper flights hit these.
A little re-engineering would make them a ringable 3, but its not likely to happen.

  Can anybody tell me anything about the bell installation at Folkton near Filey, N. Yorkshire, please? I visited the church over 30 years ago and thought I could recall four ringing ropes hanging down below the tower in a quite nicely panneled ringing area. I can't find any listings on Dove or on lost rings. I note that there's an extract on GENUKI below listing three bells. Anybody any wiser?
