[Bell Historians] Minster Churches

[Andrew Bull]

Perhaps I didn't phrase my message very well. Berkeley, Glos, is listed on
the Wikipedia link as a "minster" church, and this is the first I've heard
of it in 14 years of ringing fairly regularly at Berkeley.

Are you sure you are referring to the right Newport - Berkeley is nearer to
Newport, Gwent and quite a way from Newport, IoW!

I live near Berkeley, and ring there quite often - this is the first I've
heard that it's a "minster"!

They're breeding like flies!

The BBC did not get their information from Wikipedia! It tells us exactly
what a Minster is. Of course, Wikipedia is never wrong! ;-)
