This week's Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Nicholas in Chawton, Hampshire. The church is closely associated with the author Jane Austen who lived in the village, worshipped at St Nicholas and whose mother and sister are buried in the churchyard. There are six bells all cast by Taylors Earye and Smith foundry of Loughborough in 2006. The Tenor bell weighs six hundredweight and is tuned to the note of B and we hear them ringing Cambridge Surprise Minor.
