Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Leonard Horringer in Suffolk. Built in the 14th century the Norman parish church was dedicated to the French saint, Leonard of Limoges and is believed to be on the site of an earlier wooden Saxon structure. There are eight bells all cast by the John Taylor Foundry of Loughborough in 2016. The Tenor weighs eight hundredweight and is tuned to the note of B-flat. We hear them ringing Cambridge surprise Major.
