Coln St Aldwyns, St John the Baptist

The parish Church of St John the Baptist, Coln St Aldwyns, is on the western edge of the village an the end of a cul-de-sac and just a short distance from the River Coln that runs along the west of this Cotswold village. There is limited roadside parking on the lane leading to the church.

The tower is on the South side of the church. The ringing room is reached by climbing a steep ladder. The room is small and ringing the Tenor is particulary awkward.

The Bells

The tower has a ring of 8 bells with a tenor weighing 7-2-26 in A♭. Dove's Guide includes details of the bells at St John the Baptist and more information is provided by the Gloucester & Bristol Diocesan Association of Church Bell Ringers.
