The medieval parish church of St Margaret in Leicester in Leicestershire

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the medieval parish church of St Margaret in Leicester in Leicestershire. Built on Anglo Saxon foundations the building was extensively rebuilt in the 15th century. The 33-metre-high tower houses a ring of twelve bells all of which were cast by the John Taylor foundry of Loughborough in 1921 plus two more recent semitone bells by the same foundry. The Tenor bell weighs thirty two and three hundredweight and is tuned to the note of C sharp. We hear them ringing Stedman Cinques.
