The Church of the Holy Cross in Woodchurch on the Wirral

Bells from the Church of the Holy Cross in Woodchurch on the Wirral.

From the Church of the Holy Cross in Woodchurch on the Wirral. The present bells were recast in 1971 from the old peal of 6 by the Whitechapel Foundry. The tenor weighs three and three quarter hundred-weight and is tuned to D. The Woodchurch bells are one of the lightest peals in the UK, this week ringing 'Cambridge Surprise Major'.
