The Abbey’s bell ringers will be marking the imminent centenary of the end of the First World War and will ring a celebratory quarter peal, Grandsire Caters. This piece has been specially composed, comprising 1918 changes (i.e. 1918 different permutations of 10 bells). It will start at 5.10pm and will take approximately an hour and fifteen minutes to ring.
