Bell Ringing

We have bells in most of our churches - in fact it is an ancient legal requirement for a parish church to have at least one bell to summon the people to worship.

​

All Saints Church, Down Ampney and Holy Rood Church, Ampney Crucis have a ring of six bells which can be pealed for weddings, public occasions and before services.

​

Our other churches have one, two or three bells, which can be chimed.

​

We have an active and enthusiastic group of bellringers at Ampney Crucis.  Practice night is on a Monday from 7pm and if you are interested in taking up bell ringing - you would be very welcome to come along and be shown the ropes!
