Vicar in court over bell-ringing

London - A vicar is being taken to court on Thursday by a parishioner who claims the sound of the church bells have worsened his bowel condition. Disabled war veteran, Mr George Calvert, who is in his 70s, lives 70 ft from the belltower of the church of St Mary the Virgin in Down St Mary, Devon. He has accused the Rev Tony Gardiner of "excessive bell-ringing" in recent weeks, causing him to "bleed internally".
