St Michael’s Church in Kingsteignton, Devon

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from St Michael’s Church in Kingsteignton, Devon. The original parish church was built in the 15th century but was thoroughly restored in 1865. The medieval fabric of the west tower and arcades survive however. The tower houses a ring of eight bells which were cast in 1929 by the Gillett and Johnston Foundry in Croydon. The tenor weighs sixteen and three quarter hundredweight and is tuned to the note of F. We hear them ringing Devon style call changes.
