Bells on Sunday comes from the Minster and Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Southwell in Nottinghamshire. There has been a church on this site since early Saxon times. In 1711, the church was struck by lightning, destroying its ring of eight bells. A new ring of eight was subsequently recast by Abraham Rudhall of Gloucester. Since then, individual bells were replaced by various founders and in 1961 the bells were augmented to twelve bells by John Taylor of Loughborough. The tenor weighs twenty five and a quarter hundredweight and is tuned to the note of D. We hear them ringing Cambridge Surprise Maximus.
