We have assembled a number of pages in this topic illustrating the parts of the Church frequented by Bell Ringers. Every Church is different which makes visiting very interesting so there is no such thing as a typical church from a ringers point of view. The position of the ringing room, either on the ground floor or elevated in the tower or balcony determines the complexity of access. Please have a look around these pages by clicking the links to the right of the short description.
