The Swan Bell Tower in Perth in Western Australia.

Bells on Sunday comes from the Swan Bell Tower in Perth in Western Australia.

Bells on Sunday comes from the Swan Bell Tower in Perth in Western Australia. This tower contains the one of only three peals of sixteen change-ringing bells in the world and was erected in 1988 to mark the Australian bicentenary. The heaviest twelve bells of the peal are actually a complete 18th century set of bells that were relocated from St Martin-in-the-Fields in London. We hear them ringing Grandsire Caters on the peal’s lighter F sharp ring of ten.
