      WHD Studios 2 not exactly. The bells at Windsor are absolutely dire compared to these and they only have 8 bells with the heaviest weighing a ton and a quarter. Westminster Abbey has a ring of 10 bells with the heaviest weighing at a ton and a half

    Note the difference between English change ringing and European ringing.
    In Europe bell ringing is random in that the bells follow no sequencial pattern, in fact the bells clash with one another, also most bells are rung with electric motors.
    In Britain bells are manually rung and bells swing through full circle zllowing bells to be controlled and moved in orderly sequence.
    At Westminster Abbey there are 10 bells hence 10 ringers.
    Ever sequence is different and is based on mathematical algorithms.
    Tns type of ring has been going on in Britain since the early 1600s.
    This type of ringing exists in other countries to but is less common.
    Ireland, North America Canada, Australia and New Zealand all have English change ringing

      They seem to have bell ringers as apposed to being rung electrically and many bells are rung full circle.
      I know that in Verona they call sequential changes., Also know that English change ringing has been performed on Italian bells.
      They also ring them hand and vack stroke but of course unlike the UK there is no sallys on the ropes.

    the method they were ringing is called 'stedman caters' stedman is the name of the method and caters is the amount of bells they were ringing the method on (caters = 9 bells). the deepest pitched bell, the tenor, which goes bong at the end doesn't get counted for caters methods. if the tenor was part of the method, going off of the back, the method would become a 'royal' method (royal = 10 bells). because westminster abbey is the royal church (the one used by the queen / king), it becomes apparent why westminster abbey has 10 bells.

      I traveled to London for the first time and heard the bells of Westminster Abbey for the first time on this day. Since I went without learning anything, I thought on that day that the bell would ring every day, but when I looked into it after returning to Japan, I realized that it was a special day. . I still regret that I should have listened more seriously at that time, but I would like to travel to London again someday and hear the sound of this bell.

    English church bell are hung differently from almost anywhere else, they are hung upright with the bell at the top, whilst elsewhere the bell hangs down. This has a big impact on how the bells sound and how they are wrung.

      They are aren't chimes. With chimes the bells are hit by an external hammer and the bell doesn't move. These are bells are ringing, ie they swing through 360 degrees which means you can change the position of the bells
      Each change is different than the previous change Each bell can either stay in the same place or move one position either up or down on every change. This method is called Stedman Caters. Only 9 bells are changing position.
      The tenor which is the heaviest bell remains in 10 position all the time.
      Have a look at my video of Bow Bells, and you will see how the bells work

      Thank you for your comment. The camera used to shoot this video is a model called "iVIS HF G20" made by the Japanese manufacturer "Canon". This model was sold in Japan, but I don't know if it was exported overseas. It was a little more expensive than other cameras, but it was a product that could be purchased at a regular electronics store. It's now a fairly old camera, so if you shoot it with the latest 4K camera, you should be able to shoot videos with even better image quality.

      I checked a little about the relationship between the Beatles "Please Please Me" and the bell sound of Westminster Abbey.
      So I found this sentence on the Internet.
      On that page it was written: "Westminster bells could unconsciously have inspired him to the beginning of Please Please Me."
      When I traveled to London, I went to Abbey Road Zebra Crossing.
      Although there is a little distance from Westminster Abbey, I think there is a good possibility that John Lennon used the sound of the bells of Westminster Abbey as the subject of the song.
