Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Mary Magdalene in Debenham Suffolk The large church sits on a rise above the old marketplace. The tower is a mix of 11th century Saxon and Norman. In the 17th century the tower was truncated after damage from lightning explaining its slightly squat appearance. There are eight bells from four different founders. The tenor bell weighs twenty-one hundredweight and is tuned to the note of E flat. We hear them ringing Double Norwich Court Bob Major.
