About
We are a teaching and learning centre for ringing.
If you can lift your arms above your head then you can ring! Ringing is a light excercise suitable for all ages and abilities.
Our tower is part of the Bedfordshire Association of Church Bell ringers.
Whether you want to come and have a go, or just want to see the bells in action, contact us and we can arrange a date and time suitable for everyone.
Some people prefer to come on their own, while others come along and have fun with a group. We’d love to show you the ropes!

If you would like to have a go at a traditional pastime, why not try Bell Ringing?
Our light bells are ideal for beginners and we have accredited teachers to show you the ropes.
We also give demonstrations to groups. Give us a ring and we’ll arrange a time to suit you.

On the 11th of November 2018, for the Sunday morning service we rang the bells half-muffled to remember those who had fallen in the war. Four of those who fell in the First World War are commemorated by the plaque in the ringing chamber.
During the service a place was reserved for each person who are named on the memorial plaque inside the church, including these four bellringers. Each place was named and an item was left in their unfilled seat. For the four bellringers we also placed a bell rope to signify their connection to our tower.

Last weekend after the church service we presented flowers and a card to Heather Darvill who is taking a well earned rest after being our Tower Captain for 17 years. These were presented to her by Nick Brett (Ringing Master during the latter years of Heather's term) and Rev'd Dr Bernard Minton (Parish Priest).

The tower and its band has been supported by her in this role since 2000. She has helped the tower liaise with the Church, visiting ringers and has helped ensure we have a band each week for Sunday Service ringing and weddings. Even after stepping down as Tower captain she continues to help us in an advisory role which is greatly appreciated.
