- On Saturday 26th July 2014 I organised a peal of Grandsire Cinques at Lincoln Cathedral, a superb Taylor 12, with other city centre towers open in the morning. This is some of the ringing :-)
Chedburgh Campanile: A ceramic mini ring, I was pleasantly surprised how good flower pots can sound!! They went very well and were good fun. Only 4 of us here when filmed at the beginning of the day as others didn't arrive until later; however, after the peal, and on a whim, 8 of us from the pub went back to Chedburgh at 10 minutes notice and rang a quarter peal of Bristol S Major!
St Botolph by Bargate: A nice sounding 6 which went well, all except the 5 are 1913 Taylor's - the same year they cast the back 8 at the Cathedral and Chewton Mendip in Somerset!

St Mary le Wigford: An Oldfield 4 which went well, having been hung in 1932 by Taylor's, and were tuned as the front 4 of a 6. Ringing area was dark and dingy and the bells were nothing to write home about, although they are regularly used for quarter peals due to their availability.

St Giles: A 1728 Rudhall 8 originally hung in St Peter at Arches church. When that church was demolished, the bells and organ were moved to the new St Giles. The bells were a lot better than I remembered, sounding very nice albeit a bit clonky due to the brick tower.

Lincoln Cathedral: I love these bells!! Back 8 cast in 1913 by Taylor's of Loughborough, and augmented by said firm in 1927. They go well and sound simply fantastic, although you need to ring them slightly slower else they become mushy. Thanks due to George Salter for allowing me to use his footage of the opening rounds!! :-D
The clock was also filmed striking 10pm, to give a bit of video footage of the outside of the Cathedral, one of the finest buildings in the UK and my favourite Cathedral, and also because Great Tom, housed in the central tower, sounds pretty darn good!! He weighs about 108cwt and was cast by Thomas Mears of Whitechapel in 1835. Originally he was hung for ringing but when he started swinging it was quickly realised the tower wouldn't take it!!

I love when the bells come on in Lincoln
I can’t believe this video is 10 years old.
Ive rang at lincoln cathedral recently and they are a lovely set of 12 :)
The 2 made me sick
St Botolphs now had their bells removed, that church became an orthodox church. It is believed to be placing their bells in St Peters at Gowts. I not rung bells in general over couple of years due to poor health.
Just a question at 1:56 why is he ringing one handed???
Its called showing off 🤣
It comes in handy if you wanna check your phone like I sometimes do :-) 😏🤣
It is a bit of a shame that the internal acoustics are so poor at Lincoln Cathedral, you have to ring them a lot slower than they really want to be rung at, just to hear things properly. I think we took 3h 26m when I rang my peal there!
i like the 6 bells in Aflat 8 bells in E & lincold cathdral my home home cathdral !
That's cool
5:53 listen to that tenor growl!
Rudhall cast lots of good solid bells
Oh I say I like those 5 the proper type
The 6 (where we were ringing 5 and chiming 6) are superb. The 4 I didn't much care for. I do love the 12 at the Cathedral though!
The Cathedral 12 are, quite simply, magnificent; easy to ring and sound superb. Well worth a visit! :-)
How much did these cost you? They sound nice and would like to know how much and where from. The first ones shown that is
Lincoln St Giles are a lovely ring of bells. Shame about the local area, though
@Ivan Steel it’s a rough area
@Ivan McCue I used to park on the main road a short walk away
I know what you mean particularly after the recent incident in the area.
The first one is actually in B
Bristol Minimus is an alliance method, not a surprise method!
the first tower was brilliant who cast the bells?
That's fantastic! Who cast them? Or are they literally flower pots?
***** They literally are flower pots! A brilliant set up! :-)
Fantastic!
There's a similar ring in a garage in nearby Branston, called the "Woodside Campanile"
@@simonbellringer i know the man on the right he rang the bells in colne a ring of 8 in Db
They are now making St Mary Le Wigford 5.
UNIX Man Dove I believe says they now have a new treble, i would’ve thought 2 more tenors would’ve been better
I think they’re the front four of an incomplete ring of 6 in F. I don’t know if there were already a back two that were removed.
@@1260stedders I am very surprised they don't replace the bells there with St Botolphs bells they removed due to policies of an orthodox church. Either place wigford bells in to St Peters at gowts lower down or sell them. Either way St Peter's at Gowts will have their bells replaced lower down due to the tower issues.
10 o'clock is cool though
2:23 what is that called when you end like that?
chiming, after ringing down the bells
It’s when you ring down in peal and say after 3 miss and catch in rounds
Not lien on the 4
Is that James white on the tenor at Lincoln cathedral
No.
Don't park your car near St Giles if you want to keep your wheels
+Ringer Vincent Dodgy area
@@nord1486 I know what you mean after the recent news. I not rung at St Giles over a year now.
I don't know who it is that is ringing the 4th at St Botolphs but you do look a bit silly trying to ring one handed.
Actually, it is the third :). Match each rope to the striking and you will match the bells to the ropes.
It is the 4th out of 6 bells but it is the 3rd of the back 5
Reallywhatsthepoint if you develop good rope site you can work out that was the 4 not the three
It doesn’t matter what bell he was ringing
Funny :^D
This makes my head hurt! It's all wrong!
What is all wrong? 10am is cool for what? And which tenor do you hate? I welcome comments but please make them sensible!!
simonbellringer I second that!
Me too
Me 3
Me 5
Don't like them
Hate the tenor!
Which tenor do you hate?
