Tunstead bells to ring out

On Sunday 11th November, the Bells of St. Mary’s Church, Tunstead, will be rung by a group of local bell ringers. The group will be led by Aubrey Forster, who restored the bells in the 1990s.

The church bells are only rung in “full circle”; that is all of them rung, on special occasions.

Sunday, being the commemoration of 100 years since the cessation of hostilities of the First World War (The Great War), was chosen as a mark of respect for all those who died during the conflict. The bells will be rung around 3:00pm.
