St Margaret in Leicester.

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the medieval parish church of St Margaret in Leicester. In the 15th century, the Bishop of Lincoln ordered a “smoke farthing” tax, a tax on chimneys within a parish, to pay for rebuilding of the church. This included constructing the tower which today houses a ring of twelve bells with a tenor weighing nearly thirty three hundredweight in the note of C sharp. We hear them ringing Cambridge Surprise Maximus.
