Church of St Augustine, Brooklands in Kent

Church bells from the Church of St Augustine, Brooklands in Kent.

This week's Bells on Sunday comes from the Church of St Augustine, in the Kent village of Brookland.
Situated on Romney Marsh, St Augustines is famous for its detached 12th Century Wooden structured belfry, most of which is still intact. The tower contains a peal of six bells; the oldest, the 5th, was cast by William Chamberlain of London in 1440. The tenor weighs six and a half hundredweight and is tuned to A flat.
We hear them here ringing St Clement's College Bob Minor.

Though silenced for now, the great bell 'Emmanuel' will lead the majestic chorus again...
