In March we had some essential maintenance done on the church bells, including the replacement of bushes and pulleys, and the provision of new bell ropes. The cost of this has been covered by a grant from the Devon Church Bell Restoration Fund and fundraising by the bellringers themselves. The bells now ring much more smoothly.
We currently continue to ring with six regular ringers for Thursday practices and Sunday 11.00am services, but are desperately in need of some new recruits.
If you fancy a try at bell-ringing, just want to have a look at what we do, or if you used to ring but haven’t done so for a while, come along to a Thursday night practice from 8.00pm.
Or if you would prefer another time for a one-to-one session, give Colin Blake a call on 841026.
