BBC Radio 4 - Bells on Sunday, Holy Trinity Church, Bradford on Avon

Church bells from Holy Trinity Church, Bradford on Avon.

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from Holy Trinity Church, Bradford on Avon in Wiltshire. The tower contains a peal of eight bells from various foundries. The two oldest, numbers five and seven, were cast in 1614. 

The thirty hundredweight tenor was cast in Bristol in 1882 and is tuned to D Flat. We hear them now ringing Grandsire Triples.
