Royal Marriage of
HRH Prince William and Catherine Middleton
On Friday 29th April people were glued to their televisions to watch
the marriage ceremony between HRH Prince William and Catherine Middleton, which
was held at Westminster Abbey. Before and after the ceremony the 10 bells of
the Abbey could be heard ringing along with the occasional shot of the bells in
action in the bell chamber.
To celebrate this historical occasion seven of the Coalpit Heath bell ringers
plus one friend met on the morning of Saturday 30th April, at the
church, to ring a full peal on our bells. The peal was successfully completed,
in grand style, in 2 hours and 58 minutes. Full details of the peal are below.
