To celebrate the successful inspection of our magnificent ring of eight bells, James Joynson has made this five-minute video providing a close-up view of the bells as they chime.
As Bell Master for the Wotton branch of the Gloucester and Bristol Diocesan Association of Bell Ringers (G&BDABR), James is and responsible for technical aspects of bells and bell ringing training within the Diocese, and has been doing a terrific job training St Mary’s new band of bell ringers, led by Tower Captain Colin Dixon.
New bell ringers are welcome to expand our band – no prior experience necessary – so if you’d like to try your hand at bell ring, please don’t hesitate to email Colin Dixon for more information.
Very nice sounding Peal of 8 bells. Well done to the bell engineer for providing you with a superb octave.
Congratulations to all who were involved with this project.
Thank you, Roger. We feel very blessed to have such wonderful bells and such an exceptional team to have made them happen for us.
