Bells on Sunday comes from Sheffield Cathedral.
Time now for Bells on Sunday, which comes from Sheffield Cathedral. Formerly the parish church of St Peter, the tower had a ring of four bells as long ago as 1559. By 1745 it held eight, with the present ring of twelve being cast in 1970. Regarded as one of the finest products of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, the sound has been improved by the use of a wooden-shafted clapper in the thirty four hundredweight tenor. The method we hear is Yorkshire Surprise Maximus, by the Sheffield Cathedral Company of Ringers.
