The Cathedral Church of St Peter in Bradford, West Yorkshire

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from the Cathedral Church of St Peter in Bradford, West Yorkshire. Built on the site of an Anglo-Saxon church the current building is largely 15th century. In 1921 a new peal of ten bells was installed and dedicated as a War Memorial. These were augmented to a peal of twelve in 1975 with the donation of two bells from the nearby Parish Church of St. John, in Little Horton. The Tenor bell weighs twenty five and a half hundredweight and is tuned to the note of D. We hear them now ringing Grandsire Cinques.
