The Cathedral Church of St Martin’s in Leicester

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the Cathedral Church of St Martin’s in Leicester. Previously a Norman parish church, St Martin’s was much restored by the Victorians in the Gothic Style. It was raised to Cathedral status in 1927 and in 2015 the remains of King Richard the third were reburied here. In 1937, John Taylor and Son of Loughborough replaced the old 18th century ring of ten bells with a ring of twelve. The tenor bell weighs twenty five hundredweight and is in the note of D. We hear the bells ringing Cambridge Surprise Maximus.
