St John the Baptist, Burford

Church bells from St John the Baptist, Burford.

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St. John the Baptist, Burford in Oxfordshire. The church is well known for its merchants' guild chapel, and it's memorial to Henry VIII's barber-surgeon, Edmund Harman. The tower is Norman and holds 8 bells with the Tenor weighing 17 and three quarter hundredweight. We hear them now ringing Double Norwich Court Bob Major.
