St Magnus the Martyr in the City of London

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from St Magnus the Martyr in the City of London. Located next to the site of the medieval London Bridge, there has been a church on this site since at least the 12th century. Destroyed by the Great Fire of London in 1666, the church was rebuilt under the direction of Sir Christopher Wren. In 2009, a ring of twelve bells were installed by the Whitechapel Foundry of London with a tenor weighing twenty six and three quarter hundredweight, tuned to the note of D. We hear the bells ringing Stedman Cinques, performed by the ringers of the Ancient Society of College Youths.
