Bells on Sunday comes from the Abbey Church, Crowland in Lincolnshire. The Abbey has a ring of six bells made by various founders, the earliest of which is the tenor that was cast around 1486 by John Danyell of London. It weighs nine and a half hundredweight and is tuned to G. Crowland鈥檚 bells are thought to be the first to have been heard live on the 麻豆社 when they were broadcast on November 1st 1925 from Crowland to the transmitter on the roof of Selfridges store in London, via a telephone line. We hear them ringing Cambridge Surprise Minor.
