Grandsire Triples on the bells of St Mildred’s Tenterden, Kent 27cwt in Db
The pretty town of Tenterden in Southwest of Kent holds this rather vintage and boomy ring of 8 with an unusual slightly out of tune 3rd, barely noticeable but if you pay attention it can be picked out.
St Mildred’s holds the 4th heaviest ring of bells in Kent and the 23rd heaviest ring of 8 in the world, not even special but thought I’d add it in anyway… the bells were cast by a very mixed bag of founders starting off with the Lester & Pack treble dating back from 1769, the 5th from 1826 by Thomas II Mears of Whitechapel, then the three 1884 Warner bells being the 2,7 and tenor (explains why the back two sound glorious.) The Alfred Bowell 4 from 1920 and finally the 3rd and 6th by Mears ...

Fun workout! All saints holds a fantastic and mellow sounding ring of 10 cast in 1957 by John Taylor & Co. These bells are possibly the nicest handling ring I’ve rung on yet, they all go incredibly well and are very smooth going, the ropes behave nicely so the bells are easy to handle on. The acoustics in the ringing room are very nice too, a soft and mellow hum which sounds very nice to the ea...

Beeston holds a characterful and boomy ring of 10 all cast by John Taylor & Co with bells 5,6,7,9,10 being the oldest cast in 1870 with the 8 being recast in 1967. In 1877 they were augumented to an 8 and finally in 1998 they became a 10. The bells are extremely easy to handle and go incredibly well definitely one of my favourite grabs!

    They certainly seem like a characterful 8. To my ears (and if you look at the nominals), it's the treble & 2nd which are out of tune, rather than the 3rd. The first two bells are a tad too sharp for the rest of the ring.

    Firstly I must say that I ring in Cornwall and so don't do method (but do rise and fall in peal). That withstanding why do people never pull the handstroke until really late on larger bells with method ringing? Just seems to waste time once the sally starts bobbing. Not a loaded question and genuinely interested to know as I watch more of these videos.
