Ringing Up the Back 3 at Exeter Cathedral

The Back 3 being rung up on the extremely fine ring in Exeter Cathedral. Some of them are still difficult like 2 and 9 because their sally is virtually touching the beam!
10th: 33-2-11 in D 1729 William Evans
11th: 40-3-19 in C 1676 Thomas Purdue
12th: 72-2-2 in Bb 1902 John Taylor & Co

The 10th and 11th are amazing and the tenor just rounds them off

@WrongAndHome they had a wedding about 3 hours previously and they rang the light 10 which uses extra treble, 2,3,4,5 6th flat, 7,8,9. They did not use the back 3 so they were down. They did not need the extra treble or the sixth flat so they rang them down! The treble your talking about is actually the extra treble

[@Trancecub]

It´s almost like Bellringing here in Germany. And they sound much more fuller than they do with change riniging. Because the clapper doesn´t brake the bell itself. But i also like the change ringing.

I need to ring this 72 cwt 3.6 ton bell a challenge for me to set for this year. Would be nice to experience and now added to my bucket list of bells to ring in 2017. Usually my normal ringing bell is the Taylor tenor at long Ashton cast a year later than Exeter at 30.3.23cwt or 1.573 tons

I raised that monster with two others on St. Swithun's Day, July 15th

There lovely bells.

[@christianong3703]

How is that guy ringing the tenth on is own flipping heck

[@WrongAndHome]

Why did they ring up the back three and ring down the treble?

[@AYDEN_OFROBLOX]

@bellminsterboy i would like a video of the tenor for my b-day

[@shiningarmor2838]

A normal bell, the tenor and the bourdon?

[@RingerJake]

Nope. The tenor weighs over 3.6 tons (3684kg) and was cast in 1902.

[@irenec4876]

Wow, their treble is 6cwt says Doves Guide. The heaviest I have rung is 7cwt which was the 6 a my home tower in Sussex.

[@irenec4876]

That was an old comment. The heaviest bell I have ever rung is 14cwt and is the tenor at my home tower in Sussex. I have never rung it in rounds or anything other. The heaviest bell I have ever rung in rounds etc. was the 7 at my home tower (7cwt)

[@francescogreenslade7793]
