St Mary’s church in Dymock, Gloucestershire

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from St Mary’s church in Dymock, Gloucestershire. The building is mainly Norman and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The tower dates from the 15th Century and holds six bells all of which were originally cast at the Rudhall foundry of Gloucester. Following the COVID shutdown three bells were found to be un-ringable and in 2024 all six were rehung by Taylors foundry of Loughborough. The Tenor weighs sixteen and a quarter hundredweight and is tuned to the note of E. We hear them ringing April Day Doubles.
