Church bells are made from bronze - an alloy consisting of 78 percent copper and 22 percent tin. Widdershins is a term meaning to go counter-clockwise, anti-clockwise, or left-hand-wise, or to walk around an object by always keeping it on the left. |

Church bells are typically made of bronze or a brass alloy, as these metals produce a resonant and melodious sound when struck. When you go widdershins, you are moving in a counterclockwise or anticlockwise direction. It is often associated with going against the natural or traditional order, and it can be considered a direction of superstition or bad luck in some cultures and belief systems. |
