An excerpt from a peal of Grandsire Caters rung at All Hallows Church, Twickenham on Friday, 1st November 2024. This was a special moment for me, as it marked my first full peal inside on ten bells.
The tower at All Hallows houses a remarkable set of ten bells, with the tenor bell weighing 18 cwt. These bells were cast by various renowned founders from the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, including Richard Phelps, Thomas Lester, and Mears and Stainbank. Together, they create a magnificent sound, with the tenor bell's deep resonance adding a particular richness to the overall ring.
The bells have an interesting history. Originally housed at St. Dionis Backchurch, they were moved to All Hallows on Lombard Street before being relocated again due to safety concerns. The tower was subsequently rebuilt in Twickenham, where it stands today. In 1951, most of the bells were retuned, and several were recast. Then, in 1988, two new bells were added, while the older bells found a new home at St. John the Baptist in Windsor.
Ringing these bells is an enjoyable experience, though there are occasional surprises. The movement in the tower can cause the bells to drop unexpectedly. The sound they produce is impressive, especially from the tenor bell, although the smaller bells tend to be quieter, which can be a bit disappointing. Despite this, the experience of ringing here is always memorable.
