Worcester Cathedral

Church bells from Worcester Cathedral.

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from Worcester Cathedral. The Tower contains 15 ringing bells cast in 1928 by Taylor's of Loughborough, the tenor weighs forty eight hundredweight and is tuned to B. The clock room has a unique teaching centre complete with 8 dumb bells, and state of the art computer facilities which enables recruits to the world of bell ringing to practice silently as an individual or as part of a band. Today we hear the winning touch of Stedman Cinques being rung by the St Paul's Cathedral Band in the National 12 Bell Competition on June 24th 2006.
