I was lucky enough to go on a tour of the bell tower in St Mary's church in Beddington in 2008. It was also the day of the Beddington Fayre in the park.
The ten bells were re-hung in a new steel frame in 2004.text/html2009-03-20T19:27:32+00:00https://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/5143scott brawn51.373522 -0.146180TQ2965 : Boating lake, Beddington Park

Now a school, once the manor of the great Carew family. The school is a former country house. The roof of the great hall dates from around 1500 and is Grade I listed. It was used as a girls' orphanage during some part of the 19th century.text/html2006-02-22T00:47:18+00:00https://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/5143scott brawn51.371999 -0.140926TQ2965 : St Marys church, Beddington

It is possible that the church at Beddington (St Mary's), first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, was founded by either Azor the Saxon lord who owned Beddington before 1066, or Robert de Watteville who gained the manor after the Norman conquest. The Roman coffin in the dovecote and another one found nearby, however, may indicate that this site was regarded as sacred long before the Saxon-built church. There are a few fragments of Norman stonework, but, otherwise, the font is the oldest existing part of the church, and this dates from the late 12th or early 13th century.text/html2006-02-22T00:42:19+00:00https://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/5143scott brawn51.369440 -0.149649TQ2865 : Beddington Park pathway to boating lake
