Ойын-сауық
Recorded at the try out on 13th December, after considerable restoration work was done in the tower, these bells are heard ringing out for the first time in 45 years.

Some good old Mears. Can't beat it!!
must have been a wonderful experience to have been there after so long a silence! thanks for sharing.
They look hard work and remind of the days when I used to live in London and the band I used to ring with would sometimes ring at St Stephens, Hampstead. They were also a 10 and the church was already closed for services when I rang there in the 1970's. It was very close to a hospital I recall. Hampstead were heavier but were also a challenge and were not very forgiving. Nice to hear these again, they don't sound half bad!
@kernowoggie Yes, they do sound nice!! Now all they need is sa complete rehang...
wow, they definatly look hard going and sound pretty loud!
Poor old bugger there on the very start nearly had a stay broken there!
How do they stand without stays?

Well because, technically at that point they 'had' already been heard for the first time in many years as they needed to be put up, unless they kept the bells up that whole time, which is implausible...
Just found this video. They seem to be rather rough going even after restoration Am I right in thinking that "the poor old bugger at the start" is in fact Edward G. Mould? Ted was based here in Gloucestershire in the 1970's and I enjoyed ringing many Peals with him. RIP Ted.
My school is there
