- Bristol, Christ Church, City of Bristol, 10-Bells, 20cwt in D.
Christ Church can only be described as a "challenging" peal of 10-bells to ring. Originally a peal of 8-bells cast by Rudhall in 1716, the ring was augmented to 10-bells in 1789 by the addition of two trebles cast by Bilbie.
Footage shows rising the 10-bells in peal followed by a selection of call-changes on 10-bells. The more astute of you may notice the 2nd ringer suddenly deciding to face the wall whilst ringing... this was to avoid the floods of water coming down on top of her...

Very good effort. For the sake of accuracy they were actually augmented to 10 in 1727 by Rudhall. When the church was rebuilt in 1786-90 Bilbie recast the two trebles somewhat heavier.
These are quite grand, I like them. Lovely video as always!
They are more like in E flat than D.
I've come to the conclusion the international decision to use A=440Hz as standard causes problems like this
Setting A=437Hz would be better
