Videos about Ringing

There are some great bell ringing videos out there that have been made by ringers and for ringers… We have picked out a handful we think you might enjoy or learn from.

Why not learn?

 A great little film by the Church Conservation Trust promoting ringing as a hobby and pastime. If you a thinking of learning… then it is well worth a watch!

Look! ...or perhaps don't look?

This is the most amazing video! A band of experts ring Stedman Triples wearing blindfolds. They ring by listening to each other and ringing slightly quicker or slower, to manoeuvre their bell into the correct place in the order. And they do it better than most of us can manage with blindfolds off!

Understanding Changes

Watch some brilliant ideas from the team in Washington US. They have some novel ways to show us changes and the permutations we create when we are ringing.

The Story of Bell Ringing

Breaking a Stay...

If you haven’t seen a stay break or fail, this is a sobering video that shows what happens. I you watch this, you will understand why it is a good idea to let the rope go when it happens… Or even better – don’t break the stay in the first place!
