In the 1960s and 70s St Hilary's boasted a Sunday Service band capable of ringing spliced Surprise Minor, but at present we struggle with Bob Doubles and Grandsire. Help is always welcome! Access is by the vestry door at the Claremont Road end of the church. If the door is locked, there is a bell push under the lintel that rings a buzzer in the ringing chamber.

For more details on the bells, see The Ringing World, No.3995, 20 November 1987.

Entrance to the tower is gained via the intercom adjacent to the Vestry Door, located at the base of the tower.
