The Church of St Peter and St Paul, in Aston in Birmingham

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the Church of St Peter and St Paul, in Aston in Birmingham. A church at Aston is recorded in the Domesday Book when Aston was valued at one hundred shillings, five times as much as the nearby settlement of Birmingham. The fifteenth century west tower houses a ring of twelve bells, cast by Taylors of Loughborough in 1935 with a tenor weighing twenty four and a half hundredweight and tuned to the note of D. We hear them ringing Cambridge Surprise Maximus.
