The market town of Stow on the Wold is situated on a 800 foot hill at the junction of ancient roads through the Cotswolds including the Fosse way. St Edward’s church has a ring of eight bells the earliest of which were cast in 1620 by Henry Farmer of Evesham. The tenor, weighing twenty-seven and a half hundredweight, is tuned to D.
