St Swithin Clunbury, Shropshire

Bells on Sunday comes from the Parish church of St Swithin Clunbury in Shropshire.

Bells on Sunday comes from the Parish church of St Swithin Clunbury in Shropshire. Situated on the edge of the Black Mountains the church was originally constructed in the 12th century as a chapel of ease with major additions and alterations in the 14th and 15th centuries. There are six bells, five cast by the John Warner foundry of London in 1887 and a 1620 Tenor bell by William Clibury which weighs ten hundredweight and is tuned to the note of A. We now hear them ringing Cambridge Surprise Minor.
