I was born in 1940 and was christened and confirmed in the Church. Rev Richard Taylor was the vicar for most of my scool days. In 1953 I learnt to ring the bells, we went to Shroton to be taught by Mr George Denis,when we were good enough we rang in the tem with Mr A Hart the captain, Mr C Pike, Mr A Dunn and Mr G Eagle, I learnt to ring with David Wingrove and one or two more boys of the same age. The Rev Taylor used to take boys from the Choir to Blandford Army Canp to sing at the Sevice there as he was Chaplen to the camp.
