Are there many Dutch ringers are all they mainly ex pats. They sound really lovely I'm glad your out there creating new peals I think 16cwt is a cracking size for a ten
@@AshleyMonck There needs to be a project next at the unrignavle tower in Madrid. Would be great if they could become a new ring and also St Paul's in Valletta, Malta...
@@srwilson3s2k14 5. Top of the tower 4. Carillon and swinging bells Belfry 3. Change Ringing Belfry (Here) 2. Ringing room 1. Ground floor 0. Concrete that stabilizes the tower
@@srwilson3s2k14 The "Beiaard" (Carillon) don't plays on the hour or any quarter. The biggest bell does the hour chiming. So in this sentence the music drum is pointless.
Does it really matter thomas? its the first peal of change ringing bells in the netherlands, It doesnt matter if they are lighter than other peals if anything its better as new ringers can be trained easily
My friend Martijn went there on 2 October he told me that they were fab! Very well done!

This is a church in the Netherlands that have English bell ringing.
Correct.
This makes the 4th ring in mainland Europe. Good Job!
Where are the other three?
@@richardharrold9736 Ypres St George’s, Vernet-les-Bains St George’s and ‘t Klockhuys in Dordrecht
@@richardharrold9736 technically the 5th though as there is an unringable 8 in Madrid
@@AshleyMonck ah yeah, I know about Madrid. How did it come to exist?

Fab job! They sound amazing. Must ring them some day. Do they have a local band?
Nice.

The stage above this belfry has the carillon and the largest swinging bell in The Netherlands!

Nice bit of ringing Mathew, who's band
It was part of this quarter peal Henry! bb.ringingworld.co.uk/view.php?id=1463102
How heavy are they?
16-2-26 in F
@@RingerPeter OK.
What church is this?
It says on the title. Dordrecht (The Netherlands) Grote Kerk.
They seem very small for a ring of 10 in F
They are every bit 16-2-26 in F - but they look small in the massive tower!
@@matthewhigby Can’t you cast a bigger peal? I certainly think you could get up to 40cwt in that tower.
@@RingerThomas Of course - I'll make the arrangements to rip them back out again right away.......
@@matthewhigby Don’t do that. They are a true Taylor gem. If I had the money I would do whatever I want with my bells.
