Bells on Sunday from the Parish Church of St. Peter, Tiverton in Devon

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Time now for Bells on Sunday, which comes from the Parish Church of St. Peter, Tiverton in Devon. Only a doorway remains of the original Norman stone church; the tower and much of the chancel date from the 15th century when the Earls of Devon ruled Tiverton from the Castle nearby. All but two of the ring of eight bells date back to 1737 with a tenor weighing twenty five and a half hundredweight tuned to D. We hear them ringing ‘Grandsire Triples’
