Sedgemoor Ringing Centre

Would you like to ring tower bells?

For a guided tour of the bells and a ringing taster session please use the contact form below. 

The Sedgemoor Ringing Centre at St Mary's is the nominated training tower for the Bridgwater branch and surrounding area.

We have a computerised bell ringing aid and a fully trained ringing teacher from the Association of Ringing Teachers (ART). You will be enrolled on the Learning the Ropes (LtR) scheme which teaches you to handle a bell before moving on to ringing in a band with other ringers.

Our current activity consists of a group from Bridgwater U3A that meets on Tuesday afternoon.
1.30-3.30.
Basic handling and introduction to Raising and Lowering on Tuesday evening 6.00-8.00pm.
These sessions have helped ringers from Burnham, Middlezoy, Woolavington, Brean and Ashcott, in addition to our own newcomers to St Mary's. 
1 to 1 teaching session during daytime or evenings are by arrangement.
We are also supporting the newly established band of ringers at Spaxton who practice in their own tower on Wednesday evenings after learning to ring here.

A special thanks to Barney Stratford for the use of this animation.
More bell ringing animations can be viewed here from the Washington Ringing Society.
