1st Peal on the Augmented
Bells at Brereton
The village of Brereton, Cheshire, was the seat of
the 2nd Lord Brereton who is recorded as the first Master of the
ASCY in its Name Book, in 1637. The church of St Oswald has a ring
of bells, 3 of which date back to 1634. Until 2003 they were a
ring of 5 with an empty pit for a 6th bell, which wasn't
installed until 2003. The Society was invited to ring the first
peal on the augmented ring on Sunday 2nd August. Under the
direction of the Secretary, a band of Officers and Officials
rang in this peal, which was also for the Brereton Bear
Festival.
