Idle browsing here in New South Wales found this! I used to ring these bells when a boy in the early sixties, as well as worship at the church when John Waterson was the rector. Tempus fugit!
@louisisyourgod According to Dove online, Shitechapel recast the front 3 this year but maybe they should have replaced the 1962 M+S 4th as well? God knows what they sound like now.
This has to be my favourite bell ringing vid yet. I thought the church I rand at were light at 9cwt. I can imagine these would be a challenge to ring.
Where bouts do you ring? My home tower is a 9cwt ring of 6 but i often ring on the 2cwt in Grey abbey up to the 45cwt rings of Christ Church Catedral and St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin
