St. Mary the Virgin, Chislet in Kent

Bells on Sunday comes from St. Mary the Virgin, Chislet in Kent

Currently there is no ringing taking place across UK towers, a situation not encountered since the Second World War. This morning’s recording comes from St. Mary the Virgin, Chislet in Kent. The tower has a ring of six bells. The tenor, cast in 1729, is tuned to E flat and weighs fifteen hundredweight. We hear them ringing a touch of Stedman Doubles.
