Bath Abbey’s bells will ring out this Friday (8th May) at 9am to mark the 70th Anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe.
The Abbey’s bellringers will be ringing for half an hour in celebration.
At least ten bellringers will be taking part and their experience ranges from two years to over 50 years.
It is a particularly special moment for the Abbey’s bell ringing team as the Abbey’s bells were rung 70 years ago on 8th May for VE day and recorded for a BBC broadcast.
It was then included in a 78 gramophone record of VE Day ringing, with Westminster Abbey, York Minster, Coventry Cathedral, and Puddletown, Dorset.
