Easter Ringing at Seighford 2024

It been quite a while since the bells rang out for services at Seighford, with just two or three remaining members it is hard to form a band, so a couple of us from Haughton and Swynnerton teams have been going to support them.

Local Ken Anderson came and took a couple of videos of us ringing for their Easter Service.

 

I hear there are 18 clock winders at Seighford, that quite an achievement.  If any of you or anyone else would like to learn to help and ring the bells please get in touch.
