Mancroft Ringing Centre Tour
St Peter Mancroft, Hay Hill, Norwich, Norfolk, NR2 1QQ
For over 600 years there has been a bell ringing on this site and our bells have been rung on all sorts of important local and national occasions such as in celebration of Queen Elizabeth I's birthday and the 'Spanish Armada' 1588. During your visit, you will be able to visit the Mancroft Ringing Discovery Centre's ringing chamber and the exhibition up in the church tower. The MRDC gallery was completed in 2018 and contains one of only four 'bell ringing simulators' in the world. Its bell tower is world famous because in 1715 the first ever peal was rung. You will be able to see and learn why St Peter Mancroft is a world leader in bell ringing circles.
