BBC Radio 4 - Bells on Sunday, York Minster

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from York Minster. There are two western bell towers where a total of 56 bells hang. All of them were cast at Taylor’s Bell Foundry in Loughborough and date between 1925 and 2008. Today we hear the grand sound of the largest bells of the Minster’s peal ringing Littleport Little Surprise Maximus.

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