Bromyard, St Peter

The Bromyard Parish Church of St Peter [1, 2] is on Church Lane in the East of the town. It is a large 14^th century Norman church build on the site of an earlier, 9^th century minster. It is aligned on an East West axis with the tower in the East. There is plenty of parking on the North side of the church.

I visited for the first time on Friday 17^th April 2009 for a practical session during the Hereford Ringing Course. The entrance to the stone spiral staircase that leads to the ringing room is inside the tower. I was here to practice Bob Minor and rang several courses on bell #3 which proved to be an easy bell to ring.

The tower has a ring of 8 bells with a tenor weighing 14-2-22 in F. Dove's Guide includes details of the bells at St Peter.

The Hereford Diocesan Guild of bellringers also have information on the Bromyard Parish Church of St Peter. No information on the bells history or inscriptions was to be found.
