Another happy band that rang out

The cloth industry enabled the village of BRIDGWATER to grow into a town and so fund the development of what is now a large church – St. Mary’s that stands in the centre.  Its tall spire reaches up distinguishing it from its surroundings and the sound of its 8 bells can certainly be heard right across the town.  And these excellent bells, some cast locally in the 18th C by a T.Bayley, rang out loud and clear to let the town folk know it was St. George’s Day.  And here is the merry band led by the Tower Captain Margaret Lee that  spread the message on April 23rd.
