WELCOME!                      

The area covered by the Barnsley & District Society of Change Ringers is the area within a 12 mile radius of St Mary's parish church, Barnsley.

 

The object of the society is the cultivation of the art of change ringing and the promotion of good fellowship among ringers.

 

Closed lead minor ringing (cartwheel) is encouraged and promoted by the society but not to the exclusion of other forms of ringing.
