    3 HOURS, if I was a bell ringer I'd probably do only 30 minutes

      DGJ P Well it is a Peal. I am a ringer in Sussex and i am going to ring my First Quater peal (45-50mins) soon!

      You'd be fine! A great deal of ringers have never rung peals, similar to the way that most people who jog haven't ran in marathons. It's only one small part of the tradition!

    What happened the treble ringer at 6:31

      I'm sorry. I don't know his identity. You could ask St Mary's band of ringers.

    Why has the current tenor been recast?

      I don't know. Perhaps @jasnfinlay has some more information

  • @adamm2693
    @adamm2693 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Do yous know where the tenor went? Did it get scrapped, or is it still in the tower? Or did the Keltek Trust get it?

    • @SamHallas1949
      @SamHallas1949  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No I don't. The ringers at St Mary's could tell you. I understand there's no sentimentality in the ringing world and bells are routinely melted down for re-casting.

      Is that so? I haven't seen the St Mary's ringers for some time so haven't heard.

      @@SamHallas1949 Yes the tenor is being recast. I am unsure of the reasoning, but I think it will be made slightly heavier.

      Thanks Jason. I must find out if the ringers are going to do a peal for the coronation.

    Create schools to teach how to cast and Tuning bells in South América. They have a lots of material cooper and thin . They cast bells but are horrible sound bells in South América sounds such as pots.

      Sad to think that Whitechapel Bell Foundry has since closed, leaving only one working foundry in the UK.

    • @adamm2693
      @adamm2693 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There's a few others now, ain't there? There is of course Taylors, but Higby's also cast some smaller bells, and Westley's has been casting bells for a few years now, all of which are very high quality!

    • @adamm2693

      There are also a few foundries that have worked closely with English bellfounders, including Eijsbouts of the Netherlands and Allanconi of Italy
