Yes, Shambles, they do. They call it "Bells on Sunday" When I was a child, the church bells were a part of my life as my brother did bellringing. I love to hear the changes rung properly, and it is enormously skillful, as it requires controlling a huge bell to ring out at exactly the right moment. Campanellas are OK in their place, but British bellringing should be preserved at all costs. Hwyl, Bron.
