After an almost 4 year absence this fine ring of bells in Margate, Kent are ringing out again! I am over the moon these have returned being the closest tower currently to me and being the nicest sounding ring in Thanet (mixed opinions welcome).
I cannot wait for the future of a regular practice here again and many quarter peals and hopefully peals!!
This grand and meaty old 8 in the seafront town of Margate are a real gem, the bells all sound lovely and have a soft vintage tone, despite not being rung for 3 and a half years they do go very well, just some slight oddstruckness but other than that a very fine ring! The back 5 were cast in 1785 by William Mears of Whitechapel, in 1823 they were augmented to an 8 by Thomas Mears the II, also of whitechapel. The 3 was also cast in 1785 by William Mears although was recast in 1900 by John Taylor & Co for which reason I am unsure of. Highly recommend these to anyone who is planning to visit the area!!
