BBC Radio 4 - Bells on Sunday, All Saints, Stand, Whitefield, Greater Manchester

Church bells from All Saints, Stand, Whitefield, Greater Manchester.

Bells on Sunday this week comes from the Church of All Saints, Stand in Greater Manchester. The church was designed by Sir Charles Barry who was also the Chief Architect of The Houses of Parliament. Its tower contains a complete ring of eight bells cast by Gillett & Johnson of Croydon in 1912. The Tenor weighs twenty two hundredweight and is tuned to E Flat. 
We hear them now ringing Grandsire Triples.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
