Some Rounds at St. Bartholomew's Grimley, Grimley being a charming village on the Worcester to Kidderminster Road.
I believe the Tenor is the 2nd oldest dated bell in the county. It was cast in 1482 at Worcester Foundry.
These a bit tough due to big wheels, slow turningness, long-waisted back bells, etc. I had rung here thrice before and I'm sure they used to sound very different (and better!)
@simonbellringer Oh yes I did mean COUNTY.
Fair-play for spotting that, I'll adjust it...

Do you mean the Tenor is the oldest dated bell in the COUNTY?!?! There are plenty of older bells than 1482, some dated, some not!!
