The church of All Saints, Drinkstone in Suffolk

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

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.
