Bells on Sunday, comes from Winchester Cathedral in Hampshire. Bells have rung out from the Cathedral since Saxon times. It is recorded that King Cnut gave two bells to the Old Minster in the early 11th century. Today the Cathedral has the only diatonic ring of fourteen in the world. The tenor bell weighs thirty five and a half hundredweight and is tuned to the note of C. We hear them ringing Erin Septuples.
