Bells on Sunday comes from the church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Wambrook in Somerset.
This week's Bells on Sunday comes from the church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Wambrook in Somerset. The church was originally built in the 13th century of local Hamstone. It has a three stage tower that houses a ring of five bells, the oldest of which date from the late 14th century. The tenor bell dates from the 15th century and was cast by Thomas Jeffries of Bristol. It weighs nine hundredweight, and is tuned to B flat. We now hear them ringing 'Winchendon Place Doubles'.
