Oxford, Oxfordshire

Church of St Thomas
10 bells 11-2-6 in G

The peal of ten bells at St Thomas Oxford was formed gradually between 1992, when the old third was recast, and 1995 when the remaining five bells were cast to complete the ring.

The proximity of the church to the railway station made it impossible to take a recording without any train noise in the background.

The microphone was placed on a roof on the far side of the tower, which could only be accessed by a ladder.The band rang three leads of Spliced Surprise Royal consisting of Littleport Little, Yorkshire and Littleport Little.

The band consisted of:

1 Helen M Diserens
2 Jennie Paul
3 Harry Winter
4 Michael A Williams
5 John Lindsay
6 Keith Anderson
7 Clive Holloway
8 James Clatworthy
9 Stephen J Ivin
