EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1989, we are transported back to the quaint town of Lostwithiel in Cornwall. The image captures a momentous occasion - the winners of the Lostwithiel 800 bell-ringing festival proudly posing with their hard-earned trophy. Standing tall beside them is none other than Lostwithiel Mayor, Dennis Hutchings, exuding pride as he holds up their gleaming cup. The victorious team hails from St Colomb, and they radiate joy and accomplishment. From left to right, we see Alan Rodliffe, Jill Merrifield, Fred Salmon, Andrew Belcher, David Goodwin, and Philip Tremain. Each member wears an expression of triumph on their faces as they bask in the glory of their achievement. The setting for this remarkable snapshot is St Bartholomew Church's ringing chamber in Lostwithiel. The room is adorned with traditional bell ropes that hang gracefully from above while casting intriguing shadows on the walls. These ropes serve as a testament to the dedication and skill required for such an artful performance. Photographed by Jonathan Barker with impeccable precision and attention to detail, this timeless image encapsulates not only the talent of these accomplished bellringers but also highlights the rich cultural heritage found within Cornwall's vibrant communities. It serves as a reminder that even small towns can hold grand celebrations that bring people together through shared passions like music and tradition.
