"INTO THY HANDS O LORD!" 

Information: 
Brampton is also known as Brampton Bierlow.

From Stuart Nicholson (via Facebook War Memorials Register volunteer group): "The national chimes register says there are 8 bells, still in situ. Installed 1921, the tenor tube is 93.5 inches long. The register does not give a maker. Apparently they are in the tower with an older traditional church office bell."

From WayMarking.com: Tower houses one original bell 1855 C & G Mears and eight tubular bells Harrington Latham & Co., these were given as part of a First World War Memorial.
