Special Peal
In recent years, St Nicholas Church has hosted a special peal of ringing in the run-up to Christmas. It didn't happen last year, but we're pleased to report that on 17th December, starting around 11:00am, we'll have a visiting band ringing a quarter peal to mark the recent St Nicholas Day and to help get us into the Christmas mood. Do listen out for what promises to be some excellent ringing....
