Mr. Geo. Clayden, Bellringer
PHOTOGRAPH of Mr. Geo. Olayden, taken against the steeple of the Anglican Cathedral, Christchurch, where, up to the time he left a year or so ago, he had been master ringer for 15 years. Listeners had the pleasure last year of hearing him ring the earillon- of bells at the new St. Barnabas Church, Fendalton. Mr, Clayden will give another similar entertainment on Sunday evening, June 16. Mr. Clayden had long experience in England in bellringing. He rang at
St. Martin’s, Birmingham, where he was a member of the Guild of Changeringers. He rang at Sutton Parish and conducted peals of changeringing at Lichfield on Staffordshire. He also rang in London. He rang at the opening of the new church at Fendalton. The Fendalton keyboard is one of the latest design, but that at the cathedral, while efficient, is very antiquated. There are eight bells in the carillon at Fendalton and ten at the cathedral.
