St James Church Bellringers

David Parsons created this video so that the Bellringers could share, in part, their experience of ringing for the late Queen. It begins with the names of those involved and Brian Coward and Ben Kipling raising the tenor prior to it being tolled. Next you can see Brian tolling the tenor, of note as he also rang for the Queen’s coronation. Then follows rounds on 10 fully muffled bells except the tenor which is half muffled so that it sounds as though it is tolling all the time. The last part shows some of the Quarter Peal we rang for Jake and his family with the names of those who took part, for this the bells are not muffled. It is interesting to see our bells while they are ringing.

Listen, I know this sounds stupid but in the belfry what side of the tower is behind the camera?
