  • Teacher‟S Guide Middle and Upper Primary
    Teacher‟s Guide Middle and Upper Primary Some Introductory Information about the Bell Tower. In 1988, the existing bells of St Martin-in-the-Fields, one of London‟s most famous churches, were presented to Western Australia as part of a program of activities to commemorate the Australian Bicentennial. This group of 12 bells was cast in 1725-26 and is the only peal of Royal bells known to have left England. A further five bells were cast in 1988 and in 1997 the WA government commissioned the casting of the “Millennium Bell” to complete a ring of 18 bells, one of the largest in the world. On October 18th, 1998 the then Premier of Western Australia, the Hon. Richard Court MLA, announced plans for the extensive redevelopment of Barrack Square on the foreshore of the Swan River. This would include as its central feature, a spectacular tower to house the „Swan Bells‟. Officially opened December 10, 2000, the Bell Tower was Western Australia‟s Millennium Project and the centrepiece of the Barrack Square Redevelopment. Designed by local architects Hames Sharley (WA) Pty Ltd, the Bell Tower features a steel and glass spire 82.2 metres in height and copper-clad „sails‟ which reflect the maritime history of the area and the importance of mining to the State. The Bell Tower is the first in the world to be built to allow the public to view the bells during ringing and to watch the bell ringers perform their art. There is also an external observation deck that offers unparalleled views of the river and the city.

  • The St. Mary-Le-Tower Society
    The St. Mary-le-Tower Society The bells of St. Mary-le-Tower are amongst the best known in Britain. St. Mary-le-Tower, or St. Mary at the Tower to give it its proper name, takes its name from its proximity to a tower on the town walls. The tower and walls are long since gone and the only remnants today are nearby street names like Tower Street and Tower Ramparts. The aim of this document is to give all known details of the bells that have rung out from the Tower. I also hope to provide an insight into the tremendous ringers, whose goings on have left St. Mary-le-Tower steeped in history, for there was a time that the St. Mary-le-Tower Society were the most accomplished company in the land. On beginning research, I also decided on a secondary aim for this article. Throughout the years there has been a considerable amount of information published about St. Mary-le- Tower. However, some of it is simply wrong. In places I have chosen to point out these incorrect facts and in others I have decided to leave it out for now as this is only an early draft. I hope to provide a valuable insight into the true history of ringing at our wonderful church: St. Mary-le-Tower. I hope you enjoy reading the article. The Early Days There were only five bells and a Sanctus bell present in the tower in 1553. The treble and tenor were then recast by Miles Graye I of Colchester in 1607 and 1610 respectively.

  • The Bells of St. Peter, Sudbury
    The Bells of St. Peter, Sudbury What a gloriously wild and stirring sound the bells make as they ring out over the town. Ringers from around the world often visit the tower and all comment on the fine sound and their enjoyment in ringing these bells. Over hundreds of years the bells have rung out for weddings, funerals, services of all kinds and to mark the great events of history. St. Peter’s must have had bells from early times. In a will, dated 1376 there is reference to hanging the great bell in St. Peter’s Chapel. This reference may relate to a previous building but there is a small chance that it gives an indication of the date of construction of the present tower. The eighth bell – John – one of the Kebyll bells From 1457 bequests were made towards the founding of new bells and certainly three of the present bells date from about 1470. These three historic bells were made by Kebyll of London. In 1553 a return tells of there being five bells in the tower, although this is something of a mystery as the additional two bells are not found in the tower today. It is possible that they ‘migrated’ to another tower. By the nineteenth century the number of bells had risen to six, with additions in 1605, 1641 and 1662. Perhaps the most well known escapade related to the bells took place in March 1863, when the Rector, Canon Molyneux, forbade the customary peal of bells in honour of the marriage of the Prince of Wales.

We have never had so much material offered before. This has meant that not everything could be fitted in, so apologies if your article has not appeared this time. We are particularly pleased to include Crawford Allen’s account of the augmentation of Elmsett bells from two to soon-to-be five. This has been a remarkable low cost achievement involving second hand bells, one even bought on ebay, and local fundraising and, of course, support from the Guild. Last November, while the winter issue of this publication was being finalised, there were several notable ringing achievements which just missed being reported: Richard Knight rang his 500 th peal. This was Bristol Surprise Major at Bures. David Howe rang his 100 th peal when he rang Kent Treble Bob Major at Ixworth. Tom Scase rang his 250 th quarter peal as conductor at Brandeston where the band rang Norwich Surprise Minor. Congratulations to them all. Looking ahead, we wish the young ringers well as they prepare to go to Worcester to take part in the Ringing World National Youth Contest on July 5 th .

  • Church Bells
    CHURCH BELLS A ring of bells will typically involve 1 to 5 tons of moving metal and so should be considered as heavy machinery. Full-circle ringing puts the greatest demands on the bellframe and tower. To carry the large forces created, the bellframe should be as stiff as possible and should be rigidly attached to the tower, otherwise the bells will be difficult to control. Problem Areas In general, neglect does far more damage than regular use. Attention to the following will do much to keep the bell installation in good order: easy safe access ample lighting (2 x 5' fluorescents as a minimum, more in a large belfry) attention to cleanliness exclusion of rain - immediate repair of roof leaks or broken louvres exclusion of birds - all openings fitted with galvanised heavy wire mesh. Accumulations of dirt and bird droppings, especially when damp, encourage decay of timber and corrosion of ironwork. The main supporting beams are particularly susceptible to this; the ends of timber beams built into damp masonry are prone to rot. Bolts may be fractured by rust build-up and lamination of steel beams; such build-up underneath cast iron frame members can break off their flanges. With bells hung outside, corrosion of ironwork is worsened and timber headstocks deteriorate more rapidly. Access for maintenance is often awkward. Heavily galvanised or stainless steel headstocks and fittings should be considered where regular painting would be impractical. Bells may be cracked by: Cast-in crown staples. The iron corrodes and expands, putting the crown of the bell in tension, and a crack then starts.

  • Campanologist Chronicles
    25 24 CAMPANOLOGIST CHRONICLES The Parish Church has an up and coming band of ringers. Not only do they ring the bells for Sunday services and Tuesday practice night’s, but they also help with the ringing the church bells at Albury and Little Hadham. There aren’t as many ringers about as there once were. Bell ringing is something for both young and old. It helps keep you both physi- cally and mentally fit. It is a quite a commitment, week in week out ringing for both Sunday services and practice nights, as well as the occasional wedding and christening. Many of you will remember Charlie Jordan, he was taught to ring when he was 12 years old and was still ringing at 80. The bells at Much Hadham are hung for full circle ringing. This is where a wheel and rope are attached to the side each bell and the bell is swung back and forth on a headstock by a bell ringer through a little more than 360 degrees to get bell over the balance point for setting in a safe position of rest. Learning to ring is a bit like learning to ride bike. Letting go of the rope at the right time so you don’t go up in the air, helps! The ringing that takes place in known as ‘change ringing’ with both call chang- es and method ringing being rung. Due to the full circle ringing each bell can be carefully controlled to ‘strike’ with its clapper once every change. The simplest change is called ‘Rounds’ where the bells are in the order of 12345678, bells can be called to move one place at a time to reach tuneful changes such as ‘Queens’ 13572468 or ‘Whittington’s’ 12753468 “turn again Whittington” as Dick did all those years ago on his way to London.
