All Saints Church, Allesley

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from All Saints Church, Allesley, in the West Midlands. There's been a church on this site for over 800 years. Until 1901 the bells hung as an anti-clockwise ring of 5, but then a clockwise frame for 6 bells was installed. In 1947 two new bells were hung to make a ring of 8, which we hear now ringing Cambridge Surprise Major.
