Stedman Triples at Wolverley

Ringing at Wolverley, Worcestershire on the octave. They are quite a mixture of founders but nonetheless blend to make a fairly nice eight. They are not the easiest to ring even though they go well possibly because of the low ceiling which can make the sallies kick. The trebles were added in 1991.

Where else did you go?

@Whittingtons Enville and Hagley.

@Whittingtons The ringing at Enville was terrible (they weren't the easiest but still not that bad) and I didn't manage to get enough decent ringing to make a video. There's about 22 seconds of usable rounds! Pity because there's a particularly nice tenor there.

Sound nice though!!

As for kicking sallies, look no further than the back 4 at Longbridge Deverill - they are AWFUL bells, with the sallies jumping every single backstroke.

@simonbellringer yeah I was quite surprised by how well they came out on here. The camera has been kind! I can't say they made much impression on me in the flesh!

Before it fires out :P

[timmeh1507]

@LauraBellringer yes, but there was a reasonable amount of quite nice ringing beforehand - enough to make a video anyway! However I don't know whether I can get enough decent footage from the ringing at Enville.

@timmeh1507 Well just put a 22-second clip of them on!! I have some short videos, didnt stop me uploading!! Always like a nice tenor, they should leave the best till last!!
