The church of St Giles, Graffham in West Sussex.

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Giles, Graffham in West Sussex. The pretty village church was largely rebuilt in the late 19th century but retains Norman pillars and arches in the nave. At the end of the 19th century, the tower held four bells including a 1641 bell by Tapsell and Wakefield of Chichester. In 1984, the bells were augmented to a ring of six with a tenor bell weighing nine and one quarter hundredweight in the note of A flat. The old 1621 bells was retained as a Sanctus bell. We hear them ringing Plain Bob Doubles.
