The Clatford Bell-Ringers @
Upper Clatford & Goodworth Clatford
The Clatford Bell-Ringers generally have their practices on Wednesday evenings from 7.30pm to 9pm.
The 1st, 3rd and 5th Wednesdays are at St Peter's, Goodworth Clatford and the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays are usually at All Saints', Upper Clatford. This is subject to seasonal variations and it is always wise to check with the Secretary.
Ringing church bells is a traditional English art, the skill being passed down from generation to generation. There are few places outside the Bristish Isles where church bells are rung in this way.
We welcome visitors who just want to come and watch, especially those from overseas who would not have the opportunity to see this in their own country. We are also happy to welcome anyone who wants to come and learn to ring, or anybody who would like to come and have a go without committing themselves.

A few Sunday’s ago we were ringing the bells at St. Peter’s and we had a small visitor that appeared in the ringing Chamber – guess what? It was in fact one of the resident Bats of our Church that had decided to come down a garter hole and join us! At our recent St. Peter’s APCM, the Revd. Katrina Dykes thanked the Bell Ringers for all they do, it is much appreciated. Practises continue as usual and I will let you know when we start alternating between St. Peter’s and All Saints’. On behalf of the Clatford Band, we would like to wish you all, A VERY HAPPY EASTER.
