Bells on Sunday comes from the Minster Church of St Mary鈥檚 in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. There are 12 bells which were cast by the John Taylor foundry of Loughborough in 2017. The Tenor bell weighs twenty one and a half hundredweight and is tuned to the note of E flat. We hear them being rung by an all-female band of ringers drawn from towers from across the country and abroad. They are ringing Yorkshire Surprise Maximus.
