Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St. Olave, Hart Street, in London. Built in the 15th Century, this church escaped the Great Fire and is famous as being the church where Samuel Pepys worshipped and was buried. Its eight bells were destroyed when the church was bombed in 1941, but a new ring of eight was cast in 1953 by Mears and Stainbank of Whitechapel out of the metal of the old bells. The Tenor bell weighs eleven and three quarter hundredweight and is tuned to C. We hear them ringing Stedman Triples.
