The church of All Saints, Drinkstone in Suffolk

Bells on Sunday comes from the church of All Saints, Drinkstone in Suffolk.

Bells on Sunday comes from the church of All Saints , Drinkstone in Suffolk. The church dates from the 14th century but the tower was only added in the mid-18th century when a peal of six bells was also installed. In 2024 the bells need to be replaced, and a new peal of six bells were cast and installed by the John Taylor foundry of Loughborough. The Tenor weighs eight and a quarter hundredweight and is tuned to the note of B. We hear them ringing Norwich Surprise Minor.
