Bells on Sunday comes from Exeter Cathedral in Devon. For two hundred years, the tenor at Exeter was the heaviest ringing bell in the world. There are now fourteen bells in the South Tower, allowing a light ring of ten as well as the heavy twelve to be rung. The tenor weighs seventy-two-and-a-half hundredweight and is tuned to the note of B flat. We hear the heavy twelve ringing Stedman Cinques.
