Bells on Sunday comes from All Saints, High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire

Bells on Sunday comes from the church of All Saints, High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire. The original Norman church was rebuilt in 1273 with a central tower that was subsequently demolished in the early 16th century with five bells moved to a new west tower. The tower now contains a ring of twelve bells cast by Whitechapel of London in 2012 with a tenor in the note of D weighing twenty six and three quarter hundredweight. We hear them ringing Cambridge 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.
