Скачать или смотреть Rounds and Call Changes at Caterham, Surrey

I would like to dedicate this video to my grandad Stanisław Kyc. He died on the 31st of March 2023 of cancer. He was a very caring and funny chap who would always listen to anyone if they felt upset. A very sad day for all of us.

This audio recording and the photos alongside it were taken on the 1st of April 2023 from SEECON. This recording shows the Surrey Strikers test piece which scored them 82% and placed 3rd overall. A job well done from me!

St Mary the Virgin in Caterham has a 12cwt ring of eight with the back six cast by Mears and Stainbank in 1869 followed by the two trebles in 1993. They are a mellow and pleasant sounding ring of eight. Unfortunately the trebles seem to squeal in the ringing chamber which therefore somewhat ruins them as an eight. However, when we rang the back six, we could really hear the true minor third tierces the back bells have to offer.

The bells go okay, but are a little difficult to handle especially the second and the tenor but when rung nicely produce a rewarding sound!
