In this episode of The Parson and the Songmen we join Mike at Ashwater Church, in the far west of Devon, for a day of 'ringing and singing'.

One Day In October are the first four words of a very special song that the Reverend Sabine Baring-Gould collected, telling of a bell ringing competition that took place at Ashwater church some two hundred years ago.

For the last two years this event has been remembered in the form of a day centred around bell ringing, organised by Jon Bint, Vice-Chair of the Devon Association of Ringers and Marilyn Tucker from Devon-Based Wren Music.
