During the weekend of 28th/29th May Ryde are hosting an exhibition of ringing to coincide with the Central Council meeting at Portsmouth.
Ryde has been ringing for 130 years this year so we thought it time to do a history lesson and we’re hoping to include the records of Island ringer William Rayner, who died in 1823. These records haven’t seen the light of day for nearly 100 years and they do make interesting reading, so worth a visit to view this.
If the attached poster could be printed off and displayed for people to see during and on the run up to the weekend on the mainland I would be very grateful, as it may be an extra incentive to come over to the Island to have a ring at Ryde and Shanklin and view the exhibition.
