The bells of St John the Baptist, Axbridge, Somerset

This was the 1st tower on our Devon Ringers Tour to North Somerset and the City of Bristol.
Ringers - Will Carew, Alban Forster, Andrew Phillips, Jenny Sparling, Tom Waterson, Ryan Trout (strapper - Owen Borlase)

This is without doubt your best upload. Epic striking on an awesome sounding peal of bells. Top job!
Excellent performance. Great to be able to see all six ropes too in the video.
Incredible ringing
These are my favourite six in the world. Beautiful inside and absolutely stunning outside
Wonderful performance on wonderful bells - congratulations!
Wow. Imagine lying in the grass nearby on a sunny afternoon listening to these beautiful bells being rung so expertly. Heaven!
Absolutely superb! Excellent ringing on excellent bells (Taylor's seriously knew what they were doing 100+ years ago).
this is without a doubt the most gorgeous ring of six ive ever heard, john taylor did a fab job casting and tuning these beauty's
What a magnificent sound peal. Taylors bells really took a quantum leap in sound when they adopted Simpson tuning.
I really really like these bells and the performance...I'm literally impressed. Great job!🤩
wonderful!
I have two big favourite towers in Somerset only my 1st two is Axbrigde and Chewton Mendip
these bells are my favourite I have to big favourite bells and towers in Somerset here at Axbrigde and Chewton Mendip but there all heavy to ring tenor at Chewton Mendip is 24cwt in Eb that's an 8 bell tower
Fab - thanks for posting. Such a shame you cut off the glorious hum at the end of the lower. They go on for quite some time.
Lovely sounding six. The tenor looked oddstruck though!

Probably just my ringing! That and the 5th were a tad, they are still a bit of a challenge to ring well

Yeah those bells do look oddstruck. You all rang well though, that raise was fantastic!

@@RingerJake The tenor is not oddstruck at all. I set it up for true striking when I replaced the clapper. The others are slightly off however.
