Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Mary鈥檚, Bitton in Gloucestershire. In 1821 the Vicar, the Reverend Henry Ellacombe, devised and installed a novel apparatus enabling the six bells of St Mary鈥檚 to be chimed by a single ringer that can still be seen today in the church porch. In 1936 the old bells were retuned and augmented by Taylors of Loughborough to become a ring of eight bells with a tenor weighing fourteen and a quarter hundredweight and tuned to E. We hear them ringing Call Changes on eight bells.
