Norbury Handbell Ringers were the first team registered with the HRGB which gives them a special place in the organisation’s history.
Having started in the Church School at Norbury and then having moved base from Norbury to Poynton and now to
a Methodist Church near Marple, their 140 bells are well travelled.
They continue to practice each week and play carols, hymns, marches and classical music at concerts and for gatherings such as WI groups and to entertain elderly folk in residential homes at Christmas. The team have even played on-board a narrow boat at Marple Locks Festival!
Much of the music was arranged by a local music dealer, William Gordon, who had a shop in Lower Hillgate, Stockport.
Norbury Handbell Ringers also collaborate with Walthew House, the deaf/blind centre at Shaw Heath, who have their own set of bells.
