@@georgebasford1999 How bizarre - we had a couple of ringers visit who rang at Nantwich!

@harrybellringer ahh

@@georgebasford1999 They are. 1908 Taylor’s

@harrybellringer wouldn't mind visiting these if im ever in the area :)

@ Our door is always open to visitors, just let me know if you want to follow up on it in the future and I can give you my email.

@harrybellringer sounds like a plan :)

@Ringerjay2 Why?

We did it at Ashover with 8 and 9 since they’re 18cwts E it sounded odd especially when they were surrounding the tenor the slider knocked its self out so the 2 surrounding it had to come down it wasn’t nice 10 bells 18cwts E

I would be inclined to disagree - they're still a note apart so it sounds fine

​@harrybellringer 6 and 7 sound fine, it doesnt sound that strange tbh.

@Ringerjay2 6 and 7 would be like 7 and 8 of an 8 in F#. So it doesn’t sound weird. If it was something like 5 and 6 then it would because it would be in minor key

@@Coreytheringer2345 I just flipped the clapper so it was up wrong

Oh ok

We had same problem at the crooked spire 18th December for funeral ringing of a fellow ringer it bell 8 the muffle slipped and they put it on wrong so we put it back on the right side which meant ringing the bell down

@@wereswdfgrdesd Yes I do know that strangely because I was calling them!! Got nowt better to do?

@@Coreytheringer2345 We’d just been in the belfry and wanted to try it out - get a feel for the tenors boom. Also we’d just been up there cleaning.

Only because we had the trap door open to the bells - we’d just been put there and wanted to see what it was like with it open

@@Owentheringer2025_yt Some of them can be tricky due to their odd-struckness. Also tricky for those who aren’t used to holding up for so long on the front bells! Overall though they are the easily my favorite bells in the world!

@@tittums At Ainderby?!?

Ah I see, you mean Mark Place’s mini ring

@@harrybellringer Which I now have!

I've rung here

@@PlainBobMinor16 Nope it isn’t

@@Steven_Rowe Northallerton is a brilliant tower, and I’m very lucky to have been taught here! They go exceptionally and are crystal clear in the Ringing room

I’ll have to pass on that one. Not a local here so don’t know much about the history of the tower. The only reason I could think of for a 2 tier frame here is to account for the staircase. However, there is a second staircase, which is spiral, which you may be able to see the door of when I’m walking up to the bottom tier bells.

@@AYDEN_OFROBLOX Look on my other videos

@@Ollie28188 16 up to date!

@@harrybellringerwhen did you start ringing ?

@@Ollie28188 7 Years ago

@@harrybellringer have you ever rung at Cradley, Rowley Regis, Halesowen or Stourbridge in the West Midlands?

@@Ollie28188 Nope, would like to ring at Stourbridge though!

@@srwilson3s2k14 The Northallerton band were invited by the Westminster Abbey company in 2020, but due to Covid restrictions we couldn’t go, nor in 2021 or 2022 (due to train strikes). They go relatively well, audibly tricky round the front, but they are good bells!

@@harrybellringer ah very nice good stuff. I think the bells are straight above thr ringing chamber behind the clock dials.

@@RingerOliver59 Yes they are, and that’s partly down to the fact that they are 2 rings of 3 put together. The weights are a little all over. The 4th is the lightest bell in the tower and the 3rd is the second heaviest

Wow, strange weights for the bells, but it's not as bad fawley where the 5th is heavier then the 6th (Tenor)

@@harrybellringer the oldest bell is the 4th tenor 9-3-23cwts trebles and 3rd are thomas mears and son 4th is unknown as well as the 5th tenor samuel smith

@@wereswdfgrdesd Yes I know that.

@@Coreytheringer2345 Yes they do, but they don’t swing and don’t really get used electronically. The clock is on the tenor bell of the 3 for the hour.

Well done Ashton 👏

Thank you

@@RingerOliver59 Yes, for some time they’ve moved the boxes round, due to rope issues

@@harrybellringer and because there is no need for the tenor box to be as tall as it actually is!.... 😏

Is there a way to request to ban this user/user’s comments? Think we ought to use it, or even just remove their BS

Ixworth has got them mats aswell

@@danbeaman7434 I think they were locally made - not purchased from any specific bell company. I think they were made by an old ringer

You missed two fabulous bells!

​@@harrybellringer Next time hopefully!

Thanks for that, sure most people could just look on Doves guide mate 👍🏻

Any time. It was fun to ring at both Whitby and Saltburn, two fine rings of bells!

P.S. thank you so much (to yourself and Fiona) for hosting me this weekend! It’s been a pleasure and it’s incredibly kind of you to let me stay 😁

Our pleasure Fran, you’re welcome any time

Good, yes, but by no stretch of the imagination easy!

They are just as loud and clear in the ringing room as they sound on here! Smashing bells, rare grab!

try D natural !
