The Bells of Pershore (Abbey Church of the Holy Cross), Worcestershire

Videos during 2023 will be uploaded on Sunday rather than Monday. Ringing at Pershore Abbey was possibly the largest tick off my ringing bucket list so far so I have been waiting for a good opportunity to upload this special video! What a way to start off what will hopefully be an amazing year! The Abbey is famous amongst bell ringers across the world for it's unique ringing 'cage' located 60ft above the drop of the tower. To get to it, one has to climb many stairs, walk along an alley, through a very crampt gap in the wall, along the edge of the tower, and then up and out over the drop on a metal staircase before entering the cage. To ring most of the bells you have to have your back pressed firmly up against the metal bars, which when you consider the 60ft drop behind you, it's a very daunting experience! To make matters worse still, the cage has a tendency to wobble as well! Six of the bells are cast by Abraham II Rudhall and the fourth by James Barwell, the treble being cast by Thomas II Mears in 1814. They have since been rehung by Taylor's of Loughborough. Abbey Church of the Holy Cross. 8 bells, 25cwt in D.
