Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Mary the Virgin, Ilminster in Somerset. There have been five bells in the tower from medieval times which were augmented to six bells in 1861 and eventually to eight bells in 1907 by John Taylor of Loughborough. The tenor weighs twenty two and three quarter hundredweight and is in the note of C sharp. We hear them ringing Grandsire Triples.
