From Rounds to Ropesight

This is a book and DVD combination intended for use by those new to change ringing and their teachers. It aims to teach ropesight in easy stages. The DVD contains over 110 minutes of video, split between numerous explanatory scenes and a lot of exercises, in which the ringer is asked questions about which bells are in which places in the rows being rung. These become more difficult, and later ones incorporate single, double, then triple changes. The theme moves on through more complex exercises, ending with Bastow, Little Bob and Plain Hunt.

The book contains detailed information for the ringer and teacher on how to use the DVD, and a great deal of additional, valuable information about learning and teaching basic change ringing.
