St Nicholas church, Durweston in Dorset

Bells on Sunday

Available for over a year

Bells on Sunday comes from St Nicholas church, Durweston in Dorset. The church was largely rebuilt in the mid-19th century but retained its 15th century tower.

The Tenor weighs nine and three-quarter hundredweight and is tuned to the note of F sharp. We hear them now ringing Call Changes
