The St Mark’s Bell Ringers

Each week a faithful group of bell ringers joyously ring out the bells of St Marks, for the encouragement of the community. The St Mark’s bellringers meet every Monday between 4:30pm – 6:30pm for practice in the church bell tower and every alternate Sunday between morning services to encourage the community to join the congregation. Additional events that we ring for include community weddings, funerals, and to herald significant calendar and royal occasions.
