  • George Garrett, passed away recently at the age of 78, well know as 'Grantham's Gentle Giant'.
    Ringing the bell up ready for tolling, half muffled (muffle was turned after ringing up) to mark his passing, as the people of Grantham gathered in the streets to pay their respects.

    Clappers look very smart, lovely to hear the tenor being tolled David.

    Sky blue, interesting and good choice, probably the one of a kind in the uk.

    The 11th bell is the only one that has wooden shafted calpper? Or other of the bells has also wooden shafted clapper

    • @DavidBraunton
      @DavidBraunton  3 місяці тому +1

      It is indeed, the tenor has a nylon shafted clapper; the rest are wrought iron clappers, apart from the 2# which is SG (spherical graphite).
