This week's Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Dunstan, Stepney in Greater London. St Dunstan's tower contains a ring of ten bells. Three were recast by the Whitechapel Foundry in 1952 and the remaining seven bells were cast by Thomas Mears in 1806. The Tenor weighs twenty eight and three quarter hundred weight and is tuned to D flat. The bells are famous for being part of the "Oranges and Lemons" Nursery Rhyme which ends with:- "Pray, when will that be says the bells of Stepney". We hear now the eight largest bells ringing Grandsire Triples.
