This tower is a minor ring of five!
We rang some Grandsire on the North Bucks Tower open day. We also got complemented by the tower captain there who said that it was the best ringing that they had there on the day! It is one of the North Bucks Branch Towers, that they have not been bothered to augment to 6 (this one needs a Tenor!) (:-0)

  • These have just been augmented to 6, with a treble (as a pose to a tenor) don't know if they are any better sounding, you should hope so!! Any old excuse to come back!! :)

  • @1BODGER95 Wait till you ring a peal at Oldham..... 35cwt on 3 tiers and you ring the other 2 tiiers, the tower, the Church and the Town. The tenor is on the bottom & shakes the rest of 'em to bits so if you put a tenor on top you'll just shake the tower to bits. I'll give you the notorious 10th if i ever see you there & I'll stand & laugh. Then I'll say the word you used...bollocks

  • Why on earth do founders make minor rings of five? Surely they could have been tuned, or a tenor added instead of the treble?

  • very nice. i quite like the occasional minor ring. very good ringing

  • You'll find out that it is definitely not a good idea to slide your hand up the rope, it can cause you to get blisters because your hand is moving up and down the rope so much... ring a peal and you'll find out!

  • It's much easier when you run the rope through your hand isn't it, I do that, didn't for a while but do now, I know I shouldn't but I prefer to lol

  • yes ... well at least the treble was - it was one of those tower open days where it's one quick ring and move on

  • very nice. look nice to ring, were they?

  • Good solution if you have a tall enough tower, there would be room for loads more people to stand but tower wasn't tall enough!

  • Bolocks! Put a tenor on a seperate frame above. Oldham parish church has a 4 level frame.
