Our ringers have been very busy over the Coronation weekend ringing to celebrate the occasion. Below are some summaries and photos of our exploits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday 5th May a band of mainly Bicester Branch ringers rang a Quarter Peal<\/a> at Kirtlington<\/strong> before the pre-Coronation musical event, then Kirtlington ringers rang before the Kirtlington Coronation Service Sunday 7th May. Over the weekend, many villagers chimed (\u201cdinged\u201d) the bells and signed a special book which will be donated to the village archives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eleven Islip<\/strong> ringers rang before the Abbey service on Saturday morning – particularly special for us as Westminster Abbey, the location for all coronations of English and then British monarchs since 1066, was originally built by St Edward the Confessor who was born in 1005 in Islip. Our ringers included three teenagers, one of whom was ringing in a band for the first time About 60 from the village turned up to \u2018Ding for the King\u2019 on Bank Holiday Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Woodeaton<\/strong>, five ringers from Islip rang on Sunday afternoon before the village party and then 20 from Woodeaton \u2018Dinged for the King\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
