Bells on Sunday comes from St Helen’s church, Sefton in Merseyside. The Grade One listed church building was extensively rebuilt in the 15th century in the Tudor perpendicular style.

These four bells were all cast by Henry Oldfield of Nottingham. The Tenor bell weighs eleven and half hundredweight and is tuned to the note of F. We hear them ringing Grandsire Triples
