We documented the first ever Bell Festival to take place in Loughborough, an event organised by Charnwood Arts to commemorate the bell as a unique symbol of Loughborough and its heritage, particularly due to the impact and longevity of the local Bell Foundry.
The Festival began at All Saints Parish Church with the blessing of a large willow bell. From there, a steam engine led a colourful procession through the town centre, finishing at the Carillon War Memorial. As Morris troupes danced, the clouds unleashed rain and the bandstand burst out with songs.
