As all eyes turn to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show here’s a link to a piece in the Telegraph from 2013 where Alan Titchmarsh, gardening hero, explains change ringing and how he first rang at the age of 11.
Alan rang at All Saints Ilkley which is, of course, on the race route of Le Tour de France in Yorkshire on Saturday 5 July.
This week, viewers of BBC TV may well see Alan in the vicinity of the Le Tour de Yorkshire artisan garden at Chelsea, designed by Alistair Baldwin for Welcome to Yorkshire.
