"All the Bells" for the Olympics
"All the Bells" or "Work 1197" is a conceptual work of art, created by Turner prize-winning artist, Martin Creed. His aim was to have all bells in every part of the country rung as loudly as possible for 3 minutes on Friday 27th July from 8.12am. Even Big Ben in Westminster joined in the fun, together with thousands of people from across the country, including dozens of villagers and visitors from Alstonefield. Pictures by George Wood.

Fundraising 2010
After lead was stolen from the church roof, the village went into fundraising overdrive. Together with personal donations, the cost of replacing the lead and a new alarm system (£10,100) was raised in just 2 months. The fundraising was, in fact, so successful that the water (kitchen and toilets) project was put back on track.
