The church bells of St Mary, Kentisbeare, East Devon.
This video was taken on Saturday 8th June 2024, at The Devon Association of Ringers, 6 bell striking contest Final. Tenor weighs 10-1-2 in G. This was peal number 8, Shaugh Prior who finished 2nd overall with 15.5 faults, we couldn't quite retain the Ross Shield but were pipped to the post by an excellent peal by the band from Down St Mary who finished with 13.5 faults. The video was taken from the church yard and is what the judges would have heard on the day. The bells are a complete 6 by John Taylor cast in 1958 and are superb tonally. They hang in an oak frame dated 1866 by Thomas Hooper. The bells go well, although they are a bit quiet in the ringing chamber and are somewhat odd struck, but they can be rung very well as was shown by the top 3 bands at the contest. The village of Kentisbeare lies in beautiful rural East Devon countryside, it has a village store, pub and is home to a cricket and football team. I hope you enjoy listening.
