All Saints Church, East Pennard in Somerset

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from All Saints Church, East Pennard in Somerset. The church, which dates from the 15th Century, held a ring of three bells until 1740 -when two heavier bells were added - creating the heaviest ring of five in the world rung using ropes. The tenor, tuned to the key of C, weighs twenty four and three quarter hundredweight. The bells were rehung in 1972 and we hear them ringing call changes.
