Bells on Sunday, comes from the church of St Kyneburgha in Castor, Cambridgeshire

Bells on Sunday, comes from the church of St Kyneburgha in Castor, Cambridgeshire. The original Saxon church was sacked by the Vikings in the 9th century and eventually rebuilt and dedicated in 1124. Today the fine Norman tower houses a ring of eight bells with the tenor weighing ten hundredweight and tuned to the note of G. We hear them ringing Plain Bob Triples to celebrate the 900th anniversary of the dedication.
