Ringing in 2014 in style...
Church bell-ringers in Ashover are ringing in the new year in style...
The ringing chamber at All Saints Church now boasts a new set of blue and gold bell ropes replacing strings which are around 20 years old.
The ropes have cost £1,750 and ringers are planning fundraising events to cover the costs.
