Bells on Sunday comes from St Mary’s Church in the village of Stoke by Nayland, Suffolk. The church was rebuilt in the 15th century and renovated in 1865. It appears several times in John Constable's paintings. There are eight bells, the oldest of which dates from the late 14th century by an unknown founder. The Tenor weighs twenty two hundredweight and is tuned to the note of D. We hear them ringing Grandsire Triples.
