The Single Bell of Oxnead, Norfolk

It has been a long time since I have recorded and posted a single bell video, so I hope you find this of interest!
The single bell at St Michael & All Angels Church at Oxnead was cast in 1602 by William Brend, a Norwich bell founder who cast many bells in this area between 1582 and 1634. It has a diameter of 35.00''. The tower is very small, and the bell is swung chimed via a lever. The church is used regularly by the nearby Oxnead Hall, and hosts many weddings per hear. In this video, the bell is chimed as the new couple leave the church after their wedding, during Summer 2023.

Why do you look so sad?

Can it go full circle? Or is it unsafe?

[@NirvanaCovers74]

Idk 100% but just look at how unstable it is there’s no way that’s going full circle

[@tittums]

It is rung by a lever.

Some bells are hung with just an arm at 90' to the bell and so they can only swing about 120'
