Nice bells and fantastic ringing.

Lovely Sounding Bells
-
Good also to see the local handling traits are not sloppy.

@LottieBTS What the heck do you know about higher numbers ringing? This is damn good.
-
excellent sounding Taylors bells and ringing.
-
very nice bells and also good striking!!
-
This is a high standard of striking compared to many higher numbers bands I have heard!
-
Aye that is unusual. More and more heavy rings are opting for this, because, like at Coventry Cathedral, the tenor clappers break far too regularly! Last time our tenor clapper snapped was just above the ball. We can only assume the ball fell into the bell and got flung out as we found it some distance from the bell.

has one of the youngest tower captains in the counry (Lexie, she's the one in black).

They actually sound like the back 10 at Worcester cathedral
Yes they do sound reallly lovely, obvioulsy uploaded to youtube doesn't do the audio track justice. One intereting feature of the bells is that the shaft of the clapper on the tenor is made from wood and the ball and flight are bolted on.
Very unusual.

Thanks for the comments, and I agree about ringing on youtube ringing. Next I want to set up the camera in the belfry, I can adjust audio level on camera so it wont distort.
I think some people use crappy mobile phones half the time.
Cheers
