Easter Sunday ringing

It’s been just over 3 months since the bells were rung for a service (the last occasion being Christmas Day). But for such a special date in the Christian calendar, the Rector allowed 8 ringers up the tower to ring for 15 minutes to call the congregation to the Easter Day service.

A short touch of Grandsire Triples, a plain course of Stedman Triples, followed by a burst of call changes and our time was up. Rob Child made a short recording of the Grandsire which you can listen to below.

Roll on the end of lockdown when we can all be together again in the belfry!

Congratulations to Max Knight who rang his first peal at first attempt with 7 other Wimborne Minster ringers. Max performed very well throughout ringing the 3rd to Grandsire Triples. Well done Max – first of many?!
