Change ringing in Oxford

[StarTrekLivz]

The Nine Tailors is wonderful, my edition has some of the changes printed out, and I've played them on my electronic keyboard to get a sense of what Ms. Sayers was writing about

nice peal of bells. sound like ours.

[kernowoggie]

it's actually Lincoln College Library and was the former church of All Saints.

I rang here today! the 4 heaviest bells were cast in 1622.

[rokemage]

It is a very light ring of 8 - about 7cwt. It's Lincoln College.

[Whittingtons]

It certainly Kent Treble Bob- the 3 Home touch of 96 Changes. Although nice on Kent, this touch sounds even better on Bristol Surprise.

or belfast

Nice video! They sound a light ring. Do you know how many bells there are and the weight of the tenor?

[m33tar]

No -- I just happened to be walking by and had recently read "The Nine Tailors" by Dorothy Sayers, otherwise I probably wouldn't have stopped to take the video.

i'm not enough of a good ringer to actually know what theyre ringing, but i can hear that the treble is treble bobbing, so they are ringing a method similar to Kent Treble Bob Major. The heaviest of the bells here is 6 times lighter than the heaviest bell in the 41cwt ring in the book

look on the online doves guide.
