St Nicholas’ Church, Piddington, has a working ring of five historic bells in the
tower.
Until recently, they were rung regularly and to mark special occasions,
and were an important part of village life.
We’d love to recruit some new bellringers so we can keep this tradition going
into the future.
Perhaps you’ve tried bellringing before and are considering taking it up again.
Or perhaps you’ve never tried and are interested to know what it’s all about.
Ringing the bells in a beautiful building like St Nicholas’ Church can have many
benefits: physical and mental exercise; social activity; and a sense of
achievement. You don’t need to be a churchgoer – just willing to have a go.
Interested in learning the basics?
There is a small friendly group of learners in Ambrosden, who get together
every Tuesday morning in St Mary’s Church, and who are happy to welcome
people from Piddington to join them.
