Bell Ringing
The town centre churches are very fortunate to have a keen group of people who enjoy the noble art and science of bell ringing.
Band practice is on Wednesday evenings on a monthly rota basis :
1st Wednesday - All Saints
2nd Wednesday - St Sepulchre's
3rd Wednesday - St Giles'
4th Wednesday - St Peter's
5th Wednesday - St John the Baptist (Kingsthorpe)
Sunday ringing varies but often follows this monthly pattern :
1st Sunday (evening) - All Saints
2nd Sunday (morning) - All Saints and St Sepulchre's
3rd Sunday (evening) - All Saints
4th Sunday (morning) - All Saints and St Sepulchre's
