(Apologies for the camera drop at around 2:20... my earphones slipped off and, in putting them back on, I valued my hearing over my camerawork at that moment!) :P

The best ring of bells in the world. End of.
I absolutely loved ringing here during the RWNYC.
A wonderful ring of bells. Over the years they have been made so much easier to ring and strike, and the acoustics really improved to give a fantastic balanced sound. Mostly down to the expertise and dedication of a small group of people, one in particular.
Marvellous. It always gives me immense joy to hear these lovely rich Taylor bells rung, especially to a high standard
Absolutely gorgeous ringing
Oh god! The meme has really come to life!
Amazing bells.
My friend rung here last week
Ooooh good one Simon!! Definitely my favourite 12, if not favourite ring of all time!
No wooden stay bars or sliders on these bells?
Hehehe... I can now say that I've rung here! Wow!!! I was not expecting them to sound like they do in person - KZread does not do them enough justice! The acoustics of the tower are something else! I think the combination of being an all classic Taylor bells helps incredibly. Even got handed the 11th by one of my team members, not realising at the time that it was 40cwt, and pulled it off with a bit of a shock!!
My favourite peal of bells, I think for two reasons.
Great video. Thank you for sharing!
Does ear protection have to be warn in the bell towers? Such a nice sound but the cracking of the audio suggests its VERY loud.
Where abouts is the extra treble
