Bell Ringing at Guildford Cathedral, Surrey

I ventured to Guildford Cathedral in Surrey on the 3rd of April. I was not disappointed whatsoever! The bells are absolutely fantastic! Guildford Cathedral is a very modern Cathedral by British standards having been started in 1936 and finished in 1961. It was designed by Edward Maufe (who designed the extensions at Bradford Cathedral in Yorkshire) in the Art Deco/Neo-Gothic style. It overlooks the city of Guildford from its prominent position up on Stag Hill. The Cathedral has a 30cwt ring of twelve bells cast by Whitechapel of various years - 1961, 1963, 1965 and 1975. The bells go BRILLIANTLY but due to the use of concrete, triple layer of wooden flooring and brick in the tower coupled the huge Liverpool style belfry, they are quite difficult to hear properly. You CAN make them out but it's quite hard! Ringing here features: 00:07 - A sound recording of Grandsire Cinques. 06:23 - Some Spliced Surprise Maximus recorded in the belfry. 11:12 - Some Stedman Cinques recorded from the ringing chamber.
