During a fabulous day on 5th, somthing just short of 50 folk braved the winding stairs to marvel at our magnificent clock and be amazed at our awesome bells.
The tours were headed up by our younger ringers whose knowledge, leadership and enthusiasm made many of our visitors (as well as the adult ringers) stand back in amazement.
Stationed at the bottom of the stairs, I don’t think I saw a single person emerge without a smile on their lips!
And it’s not all over yet! On Thursday this week (15th May) we are holding an open practice where we will welcome anyone who wants actually to have a go at pulling the big bells. Just turn up – and we’ll fit you in! (Unless there’s an unmanageable crowd, when we’ll have to think of a Plan. But I don’t expect that!)
