Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the Church of Saints Peter and Paul in Courteenhall, Northamptonshire. The church dates from the 12th century and was partially restored in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Its tower houses a peal of five bells all of which were cast in 1683 by the Bagley foundry of Chacombe, Northamptonshire. The tenor bell weighs twelve hundredweight and is tuned to f sharp. We hear them ringing Grandsire Doubles.
