Ring Out – The Charmborough Ring

A life-sized portable belfry is visiting Frome for the afternoon.

The Charmborough Ring has six bells that are rung in the same way as those in churches and cathedrals throughout the country. It is probably the easiest portable belfry to ring due to its relatively large bells and wheels, and is ideal for presenting “change-ringing” (often referred to as “campanology” by non-ringers) to the public and for introducing newcomers to this physically and intellectually rewarding team activity.

Watch live demonstrations of tower bell ringing, and even have a go yourself.
