The sound of the church bells of Canterbury Cathedral in Kent.

Bells on Sunday comes from Canterbury Cathedral in Kent. The south west tower, also known as the Oxford Tower, contains a ring of twelve bells plus two additional ringing bells cast by the Whitechapel Foundry in 1981. The tenor weighs thirty four and three quarter hundredweights and is tuned to the key of C sharp. We hear them ringing Grandsire Cinques.
