BBC Radio 4 - Bells on Sunday, St Mary the Virgin, Hanbury in Worcestershire

Church bells from St Mary the Virgin, Hanbury in Worcestershire.

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St. Mary the Virgin, Hanbury in Worcestershire. You may hear these bells more often than you think because the Archers uses them as the fictional "St. Stephen's Church". The present ring of 8 bells was last cast before the Second World War by John Taylor of Loughborough. We hear them now ringing Single Oxford Bob Triples.
