Arnold is a market town, unparished area and suburb of the city of Nottingham, in the English ceremonial county of Nottinghamshire. It is situated to the north-east of Nottingham's city boundary, and is in the local government district of Gedling Borough. Since 1968 Arnold has had a market, and the town used to have numerous factories associated with the hosiery industry.
Arnold's town centre is the largest in Gedling Borough (whose headquarters are located in the town) and the most important in the northeastern part of the Greater Nottingham conurbation. Nottinghamshire Police have been headquartered in Arnold since 1979. At the time of the 2011 Census, Arnold had a population of 37,768. Areas within Arnold include Daybrook, Woodthorpe, Redhill and Killisick.
Arnold once had a railway station known as 'Daybrook and Arnold' or simply 'Daybrook railway station'. It was closed along with the rest of the line on 4 April 1960. The station was located on Mansfield Road (A60) on what is now a retail park. There is still evidence of the line in the form of remnants of the embankments on Arnot Hill Park (just behind GO Outdoors).
St. Mary's Church, of the Church of England, is believed to date from 1176. It is located on Church Lane and is a Grade II* listed building. The Grade II* listed Roman Catholic Church of the Good Shepherd's current building on Thackerays Lane was built in 1964, its modern architecture – featuring a detached spire-cum-belfry – winning an award from the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1966.
Arnold town centre has a diverse range of restaurants and bars and a choice of shops including supermarkets such as Asda, Sainsbury's and Iceland as well as small independent businesses. There are Aldi and Lidl supermarkets in Daybrook. 1968 saw the opening of Arnold Market in the town centre. Market days are on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, with a flea market being held on Wednesdays.
Arnold Leisure Centre, located on High Street at the heart of the town centre, contains a swimming pool and a theatre—called the Bonington Theatre—which was named after the landscape painter Richard Parkes Bonington. The town's most notable landmark is probably the Home Brewery Company Ltd. building in Daybrook, usually referred to as 'Home Ales' in reference to the Robinson family's Bestwood Home Farm, located on Oxclose Lane.

The Spirit Lives to Set Us Free - Walk in the light of the Lord
This is me at my pipe organ practice at St Paul's Church, Daybrook, I'm fairly new at St Paul's having moved from St Mary's Church, Greasley which is the church shown in previous videos... My new church actually has 2 churches both with very different styles and I look forward to posting worship videos on Youtube so you can all see where I have moved to :-)
I do miss my old worship team, but I look forward to seeing what happens with the Music and Worship at St Pauls and St Timothy's, Daybrook because I know I can sense exciting things brewing.
Anyway enjoy this classic but favourite of mine The Spirit lives to set us free
Bellringing from the Priory Church of St Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire
10 bells, 30-2-2 in Db.
Some ringing on the NUSCR Summer Tour 2010 to the lake district.
The bells of St John the Baptist, Beeston, Nottinghamshire
Beeston is a studenty town on the edge of Nottingham. It has a Victorian church with a prominent tower and a ring of 10 bells, all cast by Taylors of Loughborough between 1870 and 1998. I do believe they were rehung last by HMA in 1998. A rewarding pre-harmonic sound, the tenor weighs 17-1- 14 (883kg) and is in E. We were waiting on the stairs for a gap in the ringing during the Nottingham Open Day in autumn last year. The spider was an amusing diversion but he didn't want to stop for long.

Pronounced Goat Ham, this settlement lies on the road between Loughborough and Nottingham. The church with, a tower and spire stands by the road.
The bells hang in frame and fittings of 1910. They are a rather fine ring of bells, which is why I have posted them despite there already being a video of them existing on YouTube

Turning up slightly late for evensong ringing on Sunday 24th Jan, so I took the opportunity to record from outside the tower. Some major on the back eight (I forgot to look up what they rang).
Sorry, they aren't that quiet in real life, its just the phone compensating!
