The parish church of St Peter, Woolton in Liverpool.

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the parish church of St Peter, Woolton in Liverpool. It was at a St Peter’s Garden Fete in 1957 that future “Beatles†John Lennon and Paul McCartney first met and played together. Built in 1888 the church originally had a ring of 8-eight bells cast by Taylors of Loughborough.

The tenor weighs nineteen and three quarter hundredweight and is tuned to E. We hear the bells ringing Stedman Caters
