However,\u00a0during the 1870s it was found that the church was too small and the building was not suitable for extension. A\u00a0new church was built 30 metres to the south of the existing building. Used for occasional services up to 1964, the original church was demolished as the building was unsafe.<\/p>\n<h2>About The Bells<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Dedication:<\/strong>\u00a0All Saints<br \/>\n<strong>Bells:<\/strong>\u00a08 bells.
