Church bells to ring for first time at North Wales Easter service

Wednesday 25 March, 2026

Bells at St Mary’s Church in Betws-y-Coed will rung for the first time at a church service this Easter, following the completion of a major restoration project.

Although the church was built with plans for a full ring of bells, that work was never completed. More than 150 years later, the tower now has a full set in place.

Eight of the bells were brought from St John’s Church in Porthmadog in 2024, after the church closed, linking the two communities.
