The Peterborough Bells

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Presented by Valda Hood
From moulding, casting and tuning to blessing, hanging and ringing, Valda Hood follows the progress of three of a peal of 12 bells from the bell foundry in Whitechapel to their new home in Peterborough Cathedral, and discovers how the bell-ringers fought for several decades to raise the necessary funds and gain permission to hang the new bells.
