I wish I had checked this video before I stayed in a hotel at the top of William Street last week, apparently very close to this church. I would have liked to have visited it.
Ok I'm bombarding your email inbox !! sorry. Anyway, looks like my question about the hammers has been answered with your tour of the bell tower. Excellent video, look forward to some more from you. Incidentally, wish me luck as I am currently wait a price off a dealer for an extensive Australian stamp collection !!
wow cool video, never seen tubular bells installed in a church like that, such a shame the clock doesnt work anymore, would be interesting to know what tunes it chimes on. i guess it could be quite complicated as there is a good range of notes!
This tower and its tubular bells are very interesting. Do you still know how to become a tubular bellringer? I would very much like to know.

How did you get started in all this? I rung church bells when I was younger. I still hold interest.

Hi,
Very interesting, good to see this area of the church building; interesting to hear mentioned Coventry, my father was born there.
I couldn't easily find any mention of the Carrington Foundry in Coventry; tubular, such an invention !
Thanks for posting.
Cheers.
