BBC Radio 4 - Bells on Sunday, St. Andrew's Church, Hurstbourne Priors in Hampshire

Church bells from St. Andrew's Church, Hurstbourne Priors in Hampshire.

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from St. Andrew's Church, Hurstbourne Priors in Hampshire. The tenor was cast in 1741 by Henry Bagley and is tuned to F. In 1998 two trebles were added by the Whitechapel Foundry to make up the present ring of eight. They were re-hung clockwise in a new steel frame by Whites of Appleton. We hear them now ringing a plain course of Plain Bob Major.
