Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Mary the Great in Cambridge. Situated between the market place and the university there has been a church on the site since at least 1205 and bells since the late 15th century when much of the present building was constructed. For the last 300 years the bells are rung for services by the Society of Cambridge Youths, one of the oldest bell ringing societies, and who are this year celebrating the tri-centennial of their foundation in 1724. Today the tower holds a peal of twelve bells, cast by the Taylor Eayre and Smith foundry of Loughborough in 2009, with a twenty four and a quarter hundredweight tenor in the note of D. We hear them ringing 鈥淧articles鈥� Maximus.
