Ringing Stedman Triples at Fenham, Newcastle

- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2022
- This unusual church, built as a memorial to the donor's two sons, contains a glorious ring of eight by Mears & Stainbank of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, cast in 1930. One of their early harmonically-tuned rings. There are a further 9 chiming bells and the whole lot can be chimed from a clavier. There is even a practice clavier in the ringing chamber which uses tubular bells! The ringing bells are superb in every way and are fortunate to have excellent acoustics which gives them a real presence despite not being heavy. The tenor is 14-0-10 in F.

A nice sounding ring of bells 😊
Having learnt to ring at St. Georges in Jesmond, I used to also ring at Fenham on occasions. Beautiful peal of bells and lovely to hear Stedman rung well on these bells. Such a glorious method when rung properly.
Lovely musical ring. Perfect striking. Haven’t rung in years. Makes me want to rediscover it. ❤
I'm absolutely sure that you would be welcomed back with open arms! Go for it :)
I haven't rung in years and I live in York......
A musical method on a pleasent set of bells... My days, I could endlessly listen to these!
They are stunning in the metal, well worth a visit.
What lovely bells and how nice are harmonically tuned bells.
Surely in my opinion the very best are Yorkminster, for some reason those pre war heavy tenors had a wonderful drone to them.
Fenham are absolutely gorgeous and must be one of my favourite eights!
Is that a Carillon popping into shot bottom right...
Yes, there's also a practice clavier on the other side!
@@timmeh1507 Wow, that's something you rarely seen today
These have a weird echo sound! But I like it!
These are a superb set of bells. Perhaps the echo is partly that my back is to the stairs and the door was a bit open?
Yeah. They sound very singy and musical.
I would very happily spend 3 hours on these :)
whitechapel always were after developing their tuning ! ballymena's back bells sing like nothing else !!
