St Mary’s Church in Chirk in North Wales

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from St Mary’s Church in Chirk in North Wales. Some parts of the church are thought to date back to Norman times. The North Aisle and Tower were completed in 1519. There are six bells all cast by John Rudhall of Gloucester in 1814. The Tenor weighs seven and a one quarter hundredweight and is tuned to the note of A flat. These bells are currently being restored and will be augmented to a ring of eight by the addition of two new treble bells. We hear them ringing Grandsire Doubles
