This majestic ring of 8 is located in the historic Cathedral. Dunblane Cathedral is a parish church of the Church of Scotland but the building itself is owned by Historic Scotland.
The ringing by the local band is of a very high standard, regularly producing winners of the SACR Striking Competition. Dunblane is also the hub of the Scottish network of ringing teachers, and has recently added a dumbbell and simulators to increase training opportunities.

Dunblane Cathedral is easily accessible by trains via Stirling, and the tower is a short walk from the train station.

Food and Drink
Dunblane has several coffee shops, bistros and pubs within easy walking distance of the tower.
