St John the Baptist, Bollington, Cheshire

The bells of St John the Baptist, Bollington, Cheshire.

Bells on Sunday comes from the parish church of St. John the Baptist, Bollington in Cheshire. There’s a ring of eight bells - although we will only hear six today - with the tenor weighing 17 hundredweight. The bells were cast in 1881 in Loughborough and were rehung in 1931. We now hear them ringing Plain Bob Doubles.
